Complex courtship displays facilitate male reproductive success and plasticity in signaling across variable environments (2011, background): “Often, this variability favors selective signaling behavior, where male courtship displays tend to occur in environments that maximize signaling efficacy (e.g., Endler, 1991; Endler and Thery, 1996; Andersson et al., 1998; Kotiaho et al., 2000; Heindl and Winkler, 2003; McNett and Cocroft, 2008).”
Wind-induced noise alters signaler and receiver behavior in vibrational communication (2010, background): “How does variation in wind speed affect the vibration of a given plant structure? Do higher wind speeds increase the bandwidth of the induced noise along with its amplitude, masking the signals of a broader range of species? The spectral shape of wind-induced noise can vary between two structurally ”
Ecological speciation in phytophagous insects (2010, background): “An excellent example of how insect communication signals can be shaped by the ecological environment, in this case differences in host plant use, stems from work on vibrational communication in Enchenopa spp. (Rodrı́guez et al., 2004, 2007; McNett & Cocroft, 2008).”
