Behavioral dominance between female color morphs of a Lake Victoria cichlid fish (2009, unknown): “Such discrete polymorphisms are ideal for studying questions pertaining to the selective pressures that generate and maintain heritable phenotypic variation in nature (e.g., Hoffman and Blouin 2000; Roulin 2004; Gray and McKinnon 2007).”
Blue tail and striped body: why do lizards change their infant costume when growing up? (2006, background): “For example, Hoffman and Blouin (2000) , who reviewed the coloration in 225 polymorphic anuran species, found that 46 of the assessed species went through an ontogenetic color or pattern change.”
Ultraviolet signals ultra-aggression in a lizard (2006, background): “Conspicuous coloration is an important visual sexual signal that has been studied in a wide variety of taxa and contexts, including mate preference, contest competition and species recognition (reviewed in Cooper & Greenberg 1992; Andersson 1994; Losey et al. 1999; Seehausen et al. 1999; Hoffman & ”
The role of sexual selection in maintaining a colour polymorphism in the pygmy swordtail, Xiphophorus pygmaeus (2003, background): “… 2003 Published by Elsevier Science 735 ubiquity of polychromatism in nature (Barlow 1973; Ryan & Keddy-Hector 1992; Andersson 1994; Hoffman & Blouin 2000), only a handful of studies have addressed the role of sexual selection in maintaining colour differences in a population…”
