The Spring 2009 Edition
January 21
- Ron, S.R. 2008. The evolution of female mate choice for complex calls in tungara frogs. Animal Behaviour 76: 1783-1794.
KW says: I think the attached paper would make a good starting point for vert lunch this Friday, since it is a study by a student at Texas that refutes Mike Ryan’s now widely accepted notion of frog calls evolving through sensory exploitation.
January 28
