Human behavioral ecology (HBE) applies the principles of evolutionary theory and optimisation to the study of human behavioural and cultural diversity. Among other things, HBE attempts to explain variation in behaviour as adaptive solutions to the competing life-history demands of growth, development, reproduction, parental care, and mate acquisition ...

Computational Behavioral Ecology
2013Computation has fundamentally changed the way we study nature, from molecules to ecosystems. Recent advances in data collection technology, such as GPS and other mobile sensors, high definition cameras, satellite images, and genotyping, are giving biologists access to data about the natural world which are orders of magnitude richer than any previously

Abstract There are at least 17 distinctive habitats into which we can place almost all tiger beetle species from the United States and Canada, such as sand dune, ocean beach, or hardwood forest floor. Most tiger beetles are limited to a single habitat type, and only a few species, such as the Oblique-lined Tiger Beetle, occur in as many ...

HYPERPARASITISM: Multitrophic Ecology and Behavior
Annual Review of Entomology, 1999▪ Abstract Hyperparasitoids are secondary insect parasitoids that develop at the expense of a primary parasitoid, thereby representing a highly evolved fourth trophic level. This review evaluates multitrophic relationships and hyperparasitoid ecology.

DEFECATION BEHAVIOR AND ECOLOGY OF INSECTS
Annual Review of Entomology, 2006▪ Abstract Whereas foraging has been a major focus of ecological and entomological research, its obligate partner, defecation, has been comparatively neglected. Insects exhibit a range of intriguing behavioral and morphological adaptations related to waste disposal in a range of contexts, including predator-prey interactions, hygiene, habitat ...

AbstractNew fields of inquiry rarely spring fully grown from the forehead of a single genius, and in addition, it is often difficult to decide when a related set of inquiries has coalesced sufficiently to define a field. As measured by the solicitation and publication of review articles, human behavioral ecology has recently become a self‐conscious ...

The Ecology of Collective Behavior in Ants
Annual Review of Entomology, 2019Nest choice in Temnothorax spp.; task allocation and the regulation of activity in Pheidole dentata, Pogonomyrmex barbatus, and Atta spp.; and trail networks in Monomorium pharaonis and Cephalotes goniodontus all provide examples of correspondences between the dynamics of the environment and the dynamics of collective behavior.

THE ECOLOGY AND BEHAVIOR OF BURYING BEETLES
Annual Review of Entomology, 1998▪ Abstract Burying beetles conceal small vertebrate carcasses underground and prepare them for consumption by their young. This review places their complex social behavior in an ecological context that focuses on the evolution of biparental care and communal breeding.
