The Effect of Background Colour on Behaviour and Development of Golden Mantella (Mantella aurantiaca) Tadpoles

open access: yesEthology, EarlyView.
This study examined how background colour influences behaviour and development in golden mantella (Mantella aurantiaca) tadpoles across ontogeny. Tadpoles preferred darker backgrounds, and this preference got less strong with increasing age. Individuals reared in darker conditions were less active but did not differ in growth rate and shelter use when ...
