Marine Chemical Ecology: Chemical Signals and Cues Structure Marine Populations, Communities, and Ecosystems [PDF]
Chemical cues constitute much of the language of life in the sea. Our understanding of biotic interactions and their effects on marine ecosystems will advance more rapidly if this language is studied and understood. Here, I review how chemical cues regulate critical aspects of the behavior of marine organisms from bacteria to phytoplankton to benthic ...

Familiarity affects social network structure and discovery of prey patch locations in foraging stickleback shoals [PDF]
Numerous factors affect the fine-scale social structure of animal groups, but it is unclear how important such factors are in determining how individuals encounter resources. Familiarity affects shoal choice and structure in many social fishes.

Metamorphosis is a critical bottleneck in the bivalve life cycle, usually associated with high mortality and asynchronous development under hatchery conditions. Synthetic chemical inducers are widely used to overcome these constraints.

Human Pheromones: Integrating Neuroendocrinology and Ethology
The effect of sensory input on hormones is essential to any explanation of mammalian behavior, including aspects of physical attraction. The chemical signals we send have direct and developmental effects on hormone levels in other people.

Morphological and developmental plasticity in larvae of Physalaemus santafecinus (Anura: Leiuperidae) in response to chemical cues of different predators [PDF]
Many antipredator responses are mediated or induced by the ability of the prey to identify chemical cues of predators. The presence of chemicals produced by predators may alert tadpoles to the presence of the predators, and a heightened response to alarm

Homing orientation in salamanders: A mechanism involving chemical cues [PDF]
A detailed description is given of experiments made to determine the senses and chemical cues used by salamanders for homing orientation. Sensory impairment and cue manipulative techniques were used in the investigation.

We perceive smells as perduring complex entities within a distal array that might be conceived of as smellscapes. However, the philosophical orthodoxy of Odor Theories has been to deny that smells are perceived as having a distal location.

Host-seeking behavior of the Heterorhabditis amazonensis nematode in response to stimulant sources
Several species of entomopathogenic nematodes have different host-seeking methods, and could be considered as "ambusher" or "cruiser". These differences may depend on how the nematodes detect the volatile signals used as cues for foraging.
