Publisher Summary This chapter discusses habitat selection in birds that involves recognition of the habitat and establishment of preferences. An analysis of the manner whereby habitat preferences are fixed are preceded by a study of the sensory capabilities of the animals in question.

Habitat Selection: Introduction
1990Habitat selection is a key component in the adaptive response of animals to their environments, and it can profoundly influence the selective regime to which the pre-adult and, in some cases, the adult stages of the organisms are exposed.

Ecology, 1981
A graphical theory of habitat selection is built in steps. The theory treats two species in an environment with two usable patch types in a matrix of unusable space. The first step assumes habitat selection is density independent and free of search costs. The second assumes density independence, and the third assumes neither.

HABITAT selection has important ecological and evolutionary consequences for birds as for other animals1–4, yet although there is abundant evidence from natural observation that it occurs, little is known of the cues by which habitats are recognised, nor the role of experience in determining such preferences5–10.

Habitat Selection and Dispersal
2017Spiders can be roughly grouped into four guilds based on their manner of foraging: web builders, ambushers, wandering spiders, and refuge builders. These guilds have different needs that influence the choice of a site when focused on foraging, shelter, or reproduction.

Habitat selection and territoriality
2018Insects dominate virtually all terrestrial and freshwater habitats on earth. This chapter reviews insect habitat selection, focusing on the occupation and defence of mating sites. First the adaptive basis of mating systems, sex roles, and behaviors in regard to habitat are established, then site occupation and defence in territorial species is explored.
