The macroecology of chemical communication in lizards: do climatic factors drive the evolution of signalling glands? [PDF]
Chemical communication plays a pivotal role in shaping sexual and ecological interactions among animals. In lizards, fundamental mechanisms of sexual selection such as female mate choice have rarely been shown to be influenced by quantitative phenotypic ...
