Boldness underlies foraging success of invasive Lepidodactylus lugubris geckos in the human landscape. (2008, background): “Some studies suggest that one measure of boldness, lack of neophobia, is correlated with invasion success in birds (Sol et al. 2002; Martin & Fitzgerald 2005).”
The cognition of ‘nuisance’ species (2019, background): “Individuals with increased behavioural flexibility may possess larger brains (Sol, 2009b) and are equipped to readily recognize and utilize unfamiliar resources (Martin & Fitzgerald, 2005).”
Personality, habitat use, and their consequences for survival in North American red squirrels Tamiasciurus hudsonicus (2008, unknown): “that are invading new areas (Martin and Fitzgerald 2005),”
Correlation between boldness and body mass in natural populations of the poeciliid Brachyrhaphis episcopi (2007, background): “These, and additional laboratory-based studies, indicate that individual variation in boldness can have potential fitness consequences by influencing mate choice, parental care, reproductive success, dispersal, anti-predator behaviour, invasion or colonization ability and speciation potential (Godin”
Cross-shelf variation in browsing intensity on the Great Barrier Reef (2010, background): “Whilst many foraging decisions by animals are based on innate behaviour (Smith 1975), others appear to be related to the prior experience, or learning, of individuals (Marples et al. 1998; Martin and Fitzgerald 2005).”
Technical innovations drive the relationship between innovativeness and residual brain size in birds (2009, unknown): “For example, newly invading populations of house sparrows, Passer domesticus, are less fearful of novelty than are established populations (Martin & Fitzgerald 2005).”
Heritable and experiential effects on boldness in a tropical poeciliid (2007, background): “…behaviour, mate choice, parental care, reproductive success, dispersal, anti-predator behaviour, invasion or colonisation ability and speciation potential (Coleman and Wilson 1998; Godin and Dugatkin 1996, Budaev et al. 1999a, b; Reale et al. 2000; Godin and Davis 1995; Martin and Fitzgerald 2005).”
