Dietary-dependent cross-species similarities in maternal chemical cues☆
Physiology & Behavior, 1977Acomys cahirinus pups preferred chemical cues from conspecific lactating females maintained on the maternal diet as compared to such cues from females fed an unfamiliar diet. Likewise, chemical cues from maternal diet Mus musculus were preferred over those from unfamiliar diet conspecific females.

Chemical-Cue Preferences of Inexperienced Snakes: Comparative Aspects
Science, 1967Different species of new-born, previously unfed snakes will respond with tongue flicking and prey-attack behavior to water extracts of the skin substances of various small animals. However, there are clear species differences in the type of extract responded to by previously unfed snakes, even within the same genus.

LIGHT AND CHEMICAL CUES TRIGGER BIBLICAL SWARMS
Journal of Experimental Biology, 2012![Figure][1] Locusts are known for their striking demonstration of the power of epigenetics. Changes in population density cue a sudden shift in their physical form between a smaller, greener, solitary phase and a larger, darker, gregarious phase by changing the expression of their genes.

Spatial gradient detection of chemical cues by catfish
Journal of Comparative Physiology ? A, 19801. Unrestrained brown bullhead catfish (Ictalurus nebulosus) were trained to turn toward the higher concentration when two concentrations of a mixture of amino acids were simultaneously flowed over the cutaneous taste epithelium on the right and left maxillary barbels. 2.

Effects of fish chemical cues on tadpole survival
Ecological Research, 2003The indirect effects of goldfish chemical cues on tadpole survival and predation by other predators (e.g. dragonfly nymph and crayfish) were tested in a field experiment. Fish chemical cues were found to affect tadpole survival when dragonfly nymphs were present. In contrast, this indirect effect was not detected in the presence of crayfish.

Juvenile toads avoid chemical cues from snake predators
Animal Behaviour, 1997Abstract Chemical senses mediate several anuran behaviours, including predator avoidance by larval frogs. Predation by garter snakes is an important influence on the survival of post-metamorphic, juvenile toads ( Bufo sp.). Studies have shown that visual, rather than chemical, cues are important for predator avoidance in post-metamorphic juvenile ...

Chemical Cues in Marine Invertebrate Larval Settlement
2020Settlement and metamorphosis constitute, arguably, the most complex period in the life history of marine invertebrate larvae. Chemical cues that induce settlement provide a mechanism to assure larval recruitment into a suitable habitat. This chapter provides a brief overview of chemical cues that induce or inhibit settlement of marine invertebrate ...

The Hydrodynamics of Chemical Cues Among Aquatic Organisms
Annual Review of Fluid Mechanics, 2009Chemical cues mediate many critical life processes, such as feeding, reproduction, and benthic settling, for aquatic organisms. Depending on the fluid velocity and flow regime, released chemicals are transported via diffusion, laminar advection, or turbulent advection prior to organism reception.

Species Recognition by Chemical Cues in Neotropical Snakes
Copeia, 2012Most snakes have the chemosensory ability to identify chemical cues from conspecifics, which is useful in many social and sexual behaviors. This has been especially well studied in European and North American snake species. In contrast, there is a general lack of knowledge on the biology and especially on the use of chemical signals by most Neotropical

The Presence of Chemical Cues Likely Alters Motivation, Rather than Perception of Weak Visual Cues
Integrative And Comparative BiologySynopsis Animals encounter information simultaneously, combining input from multiple sensory systems before responding behaviorally. When cues in different sensory modalities interact, they may have direct impacts on sensory perception, allowing the animal to perceive stimuli that it would otherwise have missed, or the cues may instead ...
