• Mirror, mirror on the wall: the predictive value of mirror tests for measuring aggression in fish (2014, background): “A breeding group includes a dominant pair and usually one or more subordinate helpers, organized in a size-dependent hierarchy (Hamilton et al. 2005) that is maintained by aggressive interactions (Mitchell et al.”
• Rules of engagement for resource contests in a social fish (2011, methodology): “Following previous research in N. pulcher (Taborsky 1984; Hamilton et al. 2005; Bergmüller & Taborsky 2007; Mitchell et al. 2009; Riebli et al. 2011), we combined lateral displays (where the fish presents its lateral aspect to its opponent while extending its unpaired fins), frontal puffed throat…”
• Context-dependent impacts of anthropogenic noise on individual and social behaviour in a cooperatively breeding fish (2013, background): “Subordinate individuals show submissive behaviours towards the dominant individuals (Hamilton et al. 2005; Bruintjes & Taborsky 2008), and dominants exhibit aggressive displays towards subordinates (Taborsky 1985; Bergmüller & Taborsky 2005).”
• Large group size yields group stability in the cooperatively breeding cichlid Neolamprologus pulcher (2005, background): “Male-male conflicts may lead to strategic growth adjustments by male helpers (Heg et al., 2004b; see also Hamilton et al., 2005).”
• Network structure is related to social conflict in a cooperatively breeding fish (2013, background): “Social conflict may be manifested in aggressive, submissive and/or avoidance behaviours (Balshine-Earn et al. 1998; Aureli & de Waal 2000; Werner et al. 2003; Hamilton et al. 2005; Reddon et al. 2012).”
