Social behaviour in sharks and rays: analysis, patterns and implications for conservation (2012, methodology): “It has been discussed that sharks are capable of active partner choice (Guttridge et al. 2009a, 2011) implying some form of recognition or phenotype matching mechanism.”
Sex and social networking: the influence of male presence on social structure of female shark groups (2010, background): “Although we are slowly beginning to develop an understanding of conspecific interactions in elasmobranchs (Guttridge et al. 2009), there is a distinct paucity of literature associated with social behavior in this taxa with detailed marine research restricted to the fission/fusion populations of…”
The role of learning in shark behaviour (2009, background): “Recently, a series of captive choice experiments conducted on juvenile lemon and nurse sharks identified that active mechanisms can play a role in the formation and composition of shark groups (Guttridge et al. 2009).”
