Correlates of boldness in three-spined sticklebacks (Gasterosteus aculeatus) (2004, background): “In order to allow repeated identification of particular individuals, each fish was assigned an individual mark and was injected with an inert polymer dye, specifically designed for the purpose of marking fish (Croft et al. 2003).”
Sampling animal association networks with the gambit of the group (2009, unknown): “In a fission–fusion animal society, a main parent group can fracture into smaller groups (such as fish shoals forming each day), and the smaller groups, later, coalesce to rejoin as the parent group (such as fish for several daytime shoals collecting at a bank at night, Croft et al. 2003).”
The impact of social networks on animal collective motion (2011, background): “This permits investigation of features such as the connectivity of the group based on connections, the relative importance of nodes in the networks andmanymore (Croft et al. 2008; Whitehead 2008; Newman 2010).”
Male sexual harassment and female schooling behaviour in the eastern mosquitofish (2005, unknown): “Croft et al. 2003).”
Sex ratio dynamics and fluctuating selection pressures in natural populations of the Trinidadian guppy, Poecilia reticulata (2004, background): “Movement decisions of individuals within and between patches can be sex ratio dependent (Lawrence 1987; Krupa and Sih 1993) and may contribute to sex ratio fluctuations between individual pools (Jirotkul 1999a; Croft et al. 2003 ).”
Behavioural trait assortment in a social network: patterns and implications (2009, methodology): “In guppies, water depth is an important variable influencing the phenotypic distribution of fish within the habitat, both as a function of body size and of sex ( Croft et al. 2003b, 2006b ), and it has been demonstrated that a greater water depth is associated with increased predation risk (Croft et”
Self-organized aggregation in cockroaches (2005, background): “Much less attention has been paid to proximal causes, addressing the question of the underlying mechanisms, with the exception of studies on fish (Krause & Tegeder 1994; Parrish & Hamner 1997; Croft et al. 2003) and social amoebae (Raper 1984).”
Self-Organized Shape and Frontal Density of Fish Schools (2008, background): “…align to others up to an intermediate distance and they are attracted to individuals further away (Huth & Wissel 1994; Couzin et al. 2002, 2005; Croft et al. 2003; Kunz & Hemelrijk 2003; Hemelrijk & Kunz 2005; for a recent review see Reynolds 1987; Reuter & Breckling 1994; Parrish & Viscido…”
Effect of gyrodactylid ectoparasites on host behaviour and social network structure in guppies Poecilia reticulata (2011, background): “This distance is based on the elective group size concept (Pitcher et al. 1983) and is a standard measure used to define shoaling behaviour in fish including guppies ( Croft et al. 2003b ).”
Social structure and co-operative interactions in a wild population of guppies (Poecilia reticulata) (2006, methodology): “The fish were given individual identity marks using a visible implant elastomer (VIE) injected in the dorsal epidermis (see Croft et al. 2003a for details).”
Social behaviour in sharks and rays: analysis, patterns and implications for conservation (2012, background): “…because it is equally likely that assortment of individuals may occur through passive processes such as variable swimming speeds between different sized individuals or habitat features (e.g. temperature) that are favourable for some but not others (Croft et al. 2003; Wearmouth and Sims 2008).”
