Comparative transcriptomics of anal fin pigmentation patterns in cichlid fishes
Background Understanding the genetic basis of novel traits is a central topic in evolutionary
biology. Two novel pigmentation phenotypes, egg-spots and blotches, emerged during the …

Crab spider lures prey in flowerless neighborhoods
One fundamental question in prey luring systems is to understand how visual signals are
interpreted by the receiver. Predators lure prey by falsely imitating the signal of a model, or …

The behavioral origins of novelty: did increased aggression lead to scale-eating in pupfishes?
Behavioral changes in a new environment are often assumed to precede the origins of
evolutionary novelties. Here, we examined whether an increase in aggression is associated …

Variation of anal fin egg-spots along an environmental gradient in a haplochromine cichlid fish
Male secondary sexual traits are targets of inter-and/or intrasexual selection, but can vary
due to a correlation with life-history traits or as by-product of adaptation to distinct …
