The peculiar case of an insectivorous iguanid lizard that detects chemical cues from prey
(2007)
Ecological and phylogenetic factors determine which sensory modalities organisms use in their day-to-day activities. Among lizards, empirical studies indicate a tight association between foraging strategies and the ability ...
Modulation of behavior in zebrafish, Danio rerio, according to female reproductive status and visual and chemical cues
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2019-01)
Zebrafish, Danio rerio, is one of the most studied vertebrate models. However, there are stillmany aspects of its reproductive behavior to be elucidated. The aim of this work was to clarify whether males and females of ...
Female pintado catfish choose well-fed males
(Brill Academic Publishers, 2010-01-01)
This study tested the preference of pintado catfish females (Pseudoplatystoma coruscans) for associating with well-fed or food-deprived males in simultaneous choice tests. Females were tested under three different treatments ...
Female pintado catfish choose well-fed males
(Brill Academic Publishers, 2010-01-01)
This study tested the preference of pintado catfish females (Pseudoplatystoma coruscans) for associating with well-fed or food-deprived males in simultaneous choice tests. Females were tested under three different treatments ...
Behavioral responses of zebrafish depend on the type of threatening chemical cues
(2016-12-01)
In fish, defensive reactions are induced by different chemical cues that emanate from sense-related stresses [physical, chemical, and visual (visual contact with predator)] or food stresses (acute fasting and chronic food ...
Sexual Differences in the Behavior of the Harvestman Leiobunum vittatum (Opiliones, Sclerosomatidae) Towards Conspecific Cues
(SPRINGER/PLENUM PUBLISHERSNEW YORK, 2012)
Preliminary observations of the harvestman Leiobunum vittatum found that individuals rub their bodies against the substrate, presenting the possibility of chemical marking. To determine whether or not L. vittatum individuals ...
Blood Cues Induce Antipredator Behavior in Nile Tilapia Conspecifics
(2013-01-18)
In this study, we show that the fish Nile tilapia displays an antipredator response to chemical cues present in the blood of conspecifics. This is the first report of alarm response induced by blood-borne chemical cues in ...
Stress responses to chemical alarm cues in Nile tilapia
(Elsevier B. V., 2015-10-01)
In predator–prey encounters between fish in which there is physical trauma to the epidermis of the prey, some species release chemical alarm cues into the water. Fish of the same species may perceive these cues and display ...
The scent of stress: Pintado catfish differentially respond to chemical cues from stressed conspecifics
(Brill Academic Publishers, 2012-01-01)
We examined whether pintado catfish (Pseudoplatystoma corruscans) can discriminate between scents of non-injured conspecifics stressed by a predator or by confinement and how fish use this information in the trade-off ...
Disturbance chemical cues determine changes in spatial occupation by the convict cichlid Archocentrus nigrofasciatus
(Elsevier B.V., 2004-11-30)
I studied the effect of disturbance chemical cues on fish that make trade-offs between foraging in an open area and remaining in a safe refuge. I used convict cichlids Archocentrus nigrofasciatus that were either visually ...
