Role of body size and shape in animal camouflage. [PDF]
Ecol EvolIn this review, we analyzed the research on the impact of animal body size and shape on their camouflage and outlined existing research issues and challenges. Overall, we found a negative correlation between body size and the effectiveness of disruptive coloration and background matching as camouflage strategies.
