Yet, these species are of major importance for the functioning of the biosphere and their progressive disappearance is accompanied by profound negative alterations of ecosystems1 (Supplemental information). To implement effective conservation measures, it is essential to have a detailed knowledge of the biology of these species...
Assessment of fighting ability in the vocal cichlid Metriaclima zebra in face o...
Amorim, Maria Clara Pessoa; Fonseca, Paulo; Mathevon, Nicolas; Beauchaud, MarilynInformation transfer between individuals typically depends on multiple sensory channels. Yet, how multi-sensory inputs shape adaptive behavioural decisions remains largely unexplored. We tested the relative importance of audio and visual sensory modalities in opponent size assessment in the vocal cichlid fish, Metriaclima zebra, by playing back mismatched agonistic sounds mimicking larger or smaller opponents d...
