• Multimodal communication of wolf spiders on different substrates: evidence for behavioural plasticity (2011, background): “…species have evolved signals that function best in specific environments by matching signals and transmission characteristics of the environment (Fleishman 1992; Endler & Thery 1996; Macedonia 2001; Boughman 2002; Gray et al. 2008; Seehausen et al. 2008; Cocroft et al. 2010; Elias et al. 2010).”
• Multimodal signalling: structural ultraviolet reflectance predicts male mating success better than pheromones in the butterfly Colias eurytheme L. (Pieridae) (2007, methodology): “Macedonia 2001; Acorn 2002; Raguso & Willis 2005), and while all three techniques have been shown to be valid at measuring UV reflectance accurately, no single method has been widely accepted as best.”
• Camouflage and colour change: antipredator responses to bird and snake predators across multiple populations in a dwarf chameleon (2006, methodology): “The contrast measures we used are simple measures of contrast in radiance (Endler, 1990; Macedonia, 2001; Heindl & Winkler, 2003).”
• Plumage brightness predicts male mating success in the lekking golden-collared manakin, Manacus vitellinus (2006, methodology): “This is a standard method to handle spectral data (e.g., Bennett et al., 1997; Endler and Théry, 1996; Hunt et al., 1998; Macedonia, 2001; Sheldon et al., 1999), especially well suited for spectra with multiple peaks (Cuthill et al., 1999).”
• Modification of the visual background increases the conspicuousness of golden-collared manakin displays (2004, background): “Similar results showing the importance of color or brightness contrast in effective signaling have been shown in other bird (e.g., Andersson et al., 1998; Heindl and Wickler, 2003) and several fish (e.g., Boughman, 2001; Endler, 1983; Fuller, 2002) and lizard (e.g., Fleishman et al., 1993; Leal and ”
