- Behavioral dominance between female color morphs of a Lake Victoria cichlid fish (2009, unknown): “For example, in the swordtail fish Xiphophorus pygmaeus, the gold morph dominates the blue morph, an advantage that might be counterbalanced by mating aversion of females for the gold morph (Kingston et al. 2003).”
- Female swordtail fish use chemical cues to select well-fed mates (2006, background): “As expected, females in the genus attend to intraspecific variation in a number of male traits (Rosenthal et al. 1996, 2001; Kingston et al. 2003), and X.”
- Species recognition by male swordtails via chemical cues (2005, unknown): “…choice in fishes (see Wong, 2004, and references therein) and is the standard measure of mating preferences in poeciliids, including swordtails (Basolo, 1990; Crapon de Caprona and Ryan, 1990; Hankison and Morris, 2002; Kingston et al., 2003; McLennan and Ryan, 1997, 1999; Rosenthal et al., 2002).”
