| Sumario: | "The current volume (Volume 54) features four chapters. In Chapter 1, Carlson and Griesser present a timely review of animal mobbing, summarizing a large body of literature across diverse taxa and then considering trends within functional, ecological, and cognitive frameworks. Chapter 2, by Spezie, Quigley, and Fusani, offers a novel, synthetic view regarding postural and constructed courtship displays, which focuses on the possible role of experience and learning in shaping their expression. In Chapter 3, Burmeister tackles the topic of vertebrate cognition in amphibians, making a case that cognitive capacities recognized across distinct taxonomic groups (e.g., frogs vs birds or mammals) might evolve toward similar adaptive ends yet building on distinct neural substrates. Chapter 4, by Cassettari and Machado, offers a synthesis of literature on courtship in arthropods, especially in a previously neglected realm: as it differs within species, among male morphs, in both mechanisms and strategies."--Preface. |
