Complex courtship displays facilitate male reproductive success and plasticity in signaling across variable environments (2011, background): “Similar condition-dependent display components have been found across several lycosids (e.g., Kotiaho, 2000; Uetz et al., 2002; Gibson and Uetz, 2008; Hebets et al., 2008b; Shamble et al., 2009; Rundus et al., In Press).”
Female mate choice based upon male motor performance (2010, background): “ocreata, multiple aspects of courtship signaling rate and duration are important in female mate choice (Delaney et al., 2007; Gibson and Uetz, 2008).”
Male signaling behavior and sexual selection in a wolf spider (Araneae: Lycosidae): a test for dual functions (2007, background): “ocreata also exhibit species-specific signaling behaviors (leg-tapping and leg-waving displays) accompanied by seismic signals (stridulation, percussion) that appear to be important in influencing female mate choice (Uetz 2000; Uetz and Roberts 2002; Gibson 2006) as well as success in agonistic enco”
Multimodal communication and mate choice in wolf spiders: female response to multimodal versus unimodal signals (2009, background): “Previous studies have found that variation in either visual male secondary sexual characters (presence/absence, size and symmetry of foreleg tufts) or seismic signals (stridulation, percussion) can influence female receptivity (McClintock & Uetz 1996; Scheffer et al. 1996; Uetz & Smith 1999; Uetz & ”
