The mismeasure of animal contests (2003, methodology): “Tendency to base decisions solely on own RHP, rather than assessing differences between self and rival, may reflect inadequate sensory acuity or experience, high costs of assessment or a lack of reliable cues (Whitehouse 1997; Bridge et al. 2000; Taylor et al. 2001).”
Fighting behavior in hermit crabs: the combined effect of resource-holding potential and resource value in Pagurus longicarpus (2006, unknown): “Additionally, empirical evidence from a variety of taxa (reviewed in Taylor and Elwood 2003) suggests that often the dynamics of a contest depends on decision rules based solely on the RHP of the decision maker, rather than on differences in fighting ability between self and the rival (e.g. Taylor ”
Switching assessment strategy during a contest: fighting in killifish Kryptolebias marmoratus (2008, background): “Recent studies, however, have shown that the primary relationship is between the contest duration and the size of the smaller animal (e.g. Taylor et al. 2001b; Jennings et al. 2004; Prenter et al. 2006; but see Kemp et al. 2006): the inverse relationship with size disparity is merely a by-product…”
Fighting in fiddler crabs Uca mjoebergi: what determines duration? (2005, background): “…size of size-matched competitors has been noted before (e.g. Dixon & Cade 1986; Glass & Huntingford 1988; Jennions & Backwell 1996; Whitehouse 1997; Taylor et al. 2001), but the implications of this for the applicability of models of fighting behaviour may not have always been recognized (Taylor &…”
Self-assessment by males during energetically costly contests over precopula females in amphipods (2006, background): “Alternatively, individuals may only ‘know’ their own abilities and fail to gather accurate information about their opponent (e.g. Bridge et al. 2000; Taylor et al. 2001; Bee 2002).”
Assessment of fighting ability in animal contests (2009, background): “Thus, we see spiders use visual and vibratory signals, yet information about RHP appears not to be gathered (e.g. Bridge et al. 2000; Taylor et al. 2001).”
