Aquatic BiologySpecies interactions are mediated by animal behaviour, and are fundamental drivers of global diversity. Mutualistic interactions, whereby multiple parties benefit from an interaction, are highly context-dependent and can scale up to affect populations ...

A marine cleaning mutualism provides new insights in biological market dynamics. [PDF]
Philos Trans R Soc Lond B Biol Sci, 2023 Most mutually beneficial social interactions (cooperation within species, mutualism between species) involve some degree of partner choice. In an analogy to economic theory as applied to human trading practices, biological market theory (BMT) focuses on how partner choice affects payoff distributions among non-human traders.

Punishment and partner switching cause cooperative behaviour in a cleaning mutualism. [PDF]
Biol Lett, 2005 Abstract:What are the mechanisms that prevent partners from cheating in potentially cooperative interactions between unrelated individuals? The cleaner fishLabroides dimidiatusand client reef fish both benefit from an interaction as long as the cleaner eats ectoparasites.

No evidence of a cleaning mutualism between burying beetles and their phoretic mites. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2017 AbstractBurying beetles (Nicrophorus vespilloides) breed on small vertebrate carcasses, which they shave and smear with antimicrobial exudates. Producing antimicrobials imposes a fitness cost on burying beetles, which rises with the potency of the antimicrobial defence.

Comparing remote and hand-held video observation methods for quantifying a cleaning mutualism. [PDF]
J Fish BiolAbstractField studies of cleaning mutualisms use a variety of methods to quantify behavioral dynamics. Studies in marine systems typically utilize data recorded by human observers on scuba or snorkel or via remote underwater video. The effects of these different methods on cleaner–client behaviors have not been rigorously assessed.

The behavioural ecology of marine cleaning mutualisms [PDF]
Biological Reviews, 2021 ABSTRACTCleaning interactions, in which a small ‘cleaner’ organism removes and often consumes material from a larger ‘client’, are some of the most enigmatic and intriguing of interspecies interactions. Early research on cleaning interactions canonized the view that they are mutualistic, with clients benefiting from parasite removal and cleaners ...

Marine Cleaning Mutualism Defies Standard Logic of Supply and Demand
The American Naturalist, 2022 AbstractSupply and demand affect the values of goods exchanged in cooperative trades. Studies of humans and other species typically describe the standard scenario that an increase in demand leads to a higher price. Here, we challenge the generality of that logic with empirical data and a theoretical model.

Mutualism or parasitism? The variable outcome of cleaning symbioses [PDF]
Biology Letters, 2005 The exact nature of many interspecific interactions remains unclear, with some evidence suggesting mutualism and other evidence pointing to parasitism for the same pair of interacting species. Here, we show spatial variation in the outcome of the cleaning relationship between Caribbean cleaning gobies ( Elacatinus evelynae

Long-term effects of the cleaner fish Labroides dimidiatus on coral reef fish communities. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Cleaning behaviour is deemed a mutualism, however the benefit of cleaning interactions to client individuals is unknown. Furthermore, mechanisms that may shift fish community structure in the presence of cleaning organisms are unclear.
