Sex-pairing pheromones and reproductive isolation in three sympatric Cornitermes species (Isoptera, Termitidae, Syntermitinae)
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2011)
The species-specificity of pairing has been studied in three sympatric Neotropical termites: Cornitermes bequaerti, Cornitermes cumulans and Cornitermes silvestrii (Termitidae, Syntermitinae). Bioassays showed that sex ...
Eavesdropping in plants: delayed germination via biochemical recognition
(Wiley, 2014-01)
Allelopathy has traditionally been viewed as a phytotoxic disruption of recipient plant metabolism, and allelopathic effects are generally strongest on species lacking historic exposure to particular phytotoxins (Novel ...
The role of learning, acoustic similarity and phylogenetic relatedness in the recognition of distress calls in birds
(2021-05)
Many groups of vertebrates produce distress calls when attacked by predators as a last attempt to survive. However, few studies investigate whether recognition of distress calls involves learning or acoustic similarity to ...
Parametric and non-parametric species delimitation methods result in the recognition of two new Neotropical woody bamboo species

Nest-mate recognition in Manuelia postica (Apidae : Xylocopinae): an eusocial trait is present in a solitary bee
(ROYAL SOC, 2007-11-01)
In eusocial Hymenoptera, females are more tolerant towards nest-mate than towards non-nest-mate
females. In solitary Hymenoptera, females are generally aggressive towards any conspecific female. Field
observations of the ...
The role of wax and resin in the nestmate recognition system of a stingless bee, Tetragonisca angustula
(SPRINGERNEW YORK, 2012)
Recent research has shown that entrance guards of the stingless bee Tetragonisca angustula make less errors in distinguishing nestmates from non-nestmates than all other bee species studied to date, but how they achieve ...
Retreat Sites Shared by Two Liolaemus Lizard Species: Exploring the Potential Role of Scents
(Sociedade Brasileira de Herpetologia, 2020-08-31)
Some lizard species modulate the use of a retreat site based on the presence of scents from other individuals, behavior that requires scent recognition. Here, we investigated if two congeneric and syntopic lizards (adults ...
Individually distinctive facial patterning without a signal value: a case of ‘missing’ social knowledge in the paper wasp Polistes versicolor?
