anthropo-1 morphized the chirpings, trillings, raspings and buzzings of the familiar insect …

Behaviors associated with reproduction are major contributors to the evolutionary success of
organisms and are subject to many evolutionary forces, including natural and sexual …

Speciation rates among extant lineages of organisms vary extensively, but our
understanding of the causes of this variation and, therefore, the processes of speciation is …

In creatures as different as crickets and scorpions, mole rats and elephants, there exists an
overlooked channel of communication: signals transmitted as vibrations through a solid …

Both ornaments and weapons of sexual selection frequently exhibit prolific interspecific
diversity of form. Yet, most studies of this diversity have focused on ornaments involved with …

Communication through substrate-borne vibrations has for long been recognized but in
comparison with air-borne sound it has received very little attention. However, in recent …

While we may have always assumed that insects employ auditory communication, our
understanding of it has been impeded by various technical challenges. In comparison to the …

Studies of the continuum between geographic races and species provide the clearest
insights into the causes of speciation. Here we report on mate choice and hybrid viability …

Hatchling lizards (Sceloporus occidentalis) from a southern population are large and have
high locomotor performance (speed and stamina) relative to hatchlings from northern …

Background Drosophila melanogaster has served as a powerful model system for genetic
