Categorizing Visual Information in Subpopulations of Honeybee Mushroom Body Output Neurons
Multisensory integration plays a central role in perception, as all behaviors usually require the input of different sensory signals. For instance, for a foraging honeybee the association of a food source includes the combination of olfactory and visual ...

Bystanders, parcelling, and an absence of trust in the grooming interactions of wild male chimpanzees [PDF]
The evolution of cooperation remains a central issue in socio-biology with the fundamental problem of how individuals minimize the risks of being short-changed (‘cheated’) should their behavioural investment in another not be returned. Economic decisions

The Island of Female Power? Intersexual Dominance Relationships in the Lemurs of Madagascar
The extant primates of Madagascar (Lemuriformes) represent the endpoints of an adaptive radiation following a single colonization event more than 50 million years ago. They have since evolved a diversity of life history traits, ecological adaptations and

Macroecology of parental care in arthropods: higher mortality risk leads to higher benefits of offspring protection in tropical climates [PDF]
The intensity of biotic interactions varies around the world, in such a way that mortality risk imposed by natural enemies is usually higher in the tropics.

Proximity data, traditionally used for inferring social networks, can inform utilization distribution at a fine scale. Using a sampling grid approach, it is possible to identify activity hotspots and spatial dynamics in conservation‐priority habitats. ABSTRACT Understanding spatial patterns in small, elusive species is critical for behavioral ecology ...

Using experiments on soil mites, we show that sexual selection associated with an armed and aggressive male phenotype can reduce population size and stability, which lowers their resilience against acute heat stress. These effects linked with armed and aggressive phenotypes underline the importance of sexual selection in mediating population dynamics ...
