Abstract Although consumptive effects of predators have long been central to ecology, predation‐risk effects have emerged as major components of predator–prey interactions. Both consumptive and predation‐risk effects should vary with predator functional traits (e.g., hunting mode, gape size), where consumption rates and induction of morphological and ...

Use of food and spatial resources by two frogs of the genus Dendropsophus (Anura: Hylidae) from La Selva, Costa Rica. [PDF]
Differences in the use of resources by similar species have been related to a reduction in the interspecific competition that allows coexistence. Also, other factors, such as high availability of resources in the environment, vegetation structure ...

However, the environmental factors driving visual signal evolution remain poorly understood.
