My objective here is to provide a comprehensive review of recent empirical and theoretical
work on antipredator decision making. The ways in which predators influence the behavioral …

The importance of chemical cues in predator-prey interactions has recently received
increasing attention from ecologists. The sources of chemicals to which prey species …

Despite the depiction of nature" red in tooth and claw", cooperation is actually widespread in
the animal kingdom. Various types of cooperative behaviors have been documented in …

Summary the evolutionary questions surrounding alarm signalling remain unresolved, but

This study examines the responses of larval American toads (Bufo americanus) to the non—
lethal presence of an odonate predator (Anax junius). We performed a laboratory …

Predator-induced defenses are well studied in plants and invertebrate animals, but have
only recently been recognized in vertebrates. Gray treefrog (Hylachrysoscelis) tadpoles …

The interdisciplinary field of marine chemical ecology is an expanding and dynamic science.
It is no surprise that the breadth of marine organisms studied expanded in concert with …

Western toad, Bufo boreas, tadpoles were collected from a lake in the Cascade Mountains of
central Oregon, where they occur in sympatry with backswimmers, Notonectaspp., giant …

This overview of non-visual communication in freshwater benthic animals emphasizes
recent studies of the effect of chemical and mechanical signals on predator-prey interactions …

The hypothesis that phenotypic plasticity is an adaptation to environmental variation rests on
the two assumptions that plasticity improves the performance of individuals that possess it …
