Function of the upper tangle in webs of young Leucauge argyra (Araneae: Tetragnathidae)
(2011)
Ontogenetic changes in web structure occur in many spiders of different families, but the functional adaptation of differences in web structure is unknown for most species. We describe the ontogenetic changes in web structure ...
Web building behavior in a wall spider (Oecobiidae) suggests a close relationship with orb-weavers
(2022)
Behavior is often phylogenetically informative and detailed descriptions of
behavior have been used to support taxonomic relationships in several groups, such
as birds, lizards, and arthropods. Web building behavior has ...
Mating and aggressive behaviour of Brachyrhaphis olomina (Cyprinodontiformes: Poeciliidae)
(2017)
Despite the increasing interest in the use of intro-mittent male genitalia and coercive mating behaviour in poeciliids, detailed studies of the mating behaviour of most species in this family are lacking. We describe here ...
Variation and possible function of egg sac coloration in spiders
(2013)
Coloration of the egg sacs of spiders varies widely to the human eye, both across and within taxonomic groups. These differences in coloration are expected with differences in the biology and ecology of different species. ...
Variación geográfica y posibles mecanismos de evolución cultural en Microcerculus philomela
(2013)
Investigué la variación del canto en una escala microgeográfica en Microcerculus philomela. Esta ave tiene un repertorio de canto único aunque de alta complejidad por tener una gran cantidad de notas de tono puro realizadas ...
Artificial cavities and substrates for cavity-nesting birds in Neotropical urban environments: A novel resource or the last opportunity to breed?
Cavidades y sustratos artificiales para aves que anidan en cavidades en un entorno urbano Neotropical: ¿un nuevo recurso o la ´ultima oportunidad para reproducirse?
(2021)
Urban development reduces the abundance of most natural resources for some birds but also provides new opportunities for others. One group that is more likely affected by urban development is the cavity-nesting species ...
Descripción acústica del dueto de Pezopetes capitalis, un ave endémica de Costa Rica y el Oeste de Panamá
(2015)
Los duetos han sido estudiados ampliamente y sus funciones varían entre especies, sin embargo en todos los casos, la sincronía temporal de los elementos cantados por cada individuo de la pareja parece tener un papel ...
A new subspecies of Black and Yellow Silky Flycatcher, Phainoptila melanoxantha^
(2000)
in Costa Rica. In some middle and highlands the abrupt topography delayed the complete destruction of mon-
Hairy kisses: tactile cheliceral courtship affects female mating decisions in Leucauge mariana (Araneae, Tetragnathidae)
(2015)
Sexual selection is thought to be an important force driving the evolution of sexually dimorphic morphology and behavior, but direct experimental tests of the functions of species-specific details of morphology are rare ...
