    Evolutionary escalation: the bat–moth arms race
    Hannah M. ter Hofstede, John M. Ratcliffe
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2016 219: 1589-1602; doi: 10.1242/jeb.086686

    Summary: Bats and insects are ideal animals for investigating predator–prey interactions, both in real-time and over evolutionary time. Here, we review the evidence for adaptations and counter-adaptations in this system.

METHODS & TECHNIQUES

    Automated detection of feeding strikes by larval fish using continuous high-speed digital video: a novel method to extract quantitative data from fast, sparse kinematic events
    Eyal Shamur, Miri Zilka, Tal Hassner, Victor China, Alex Liberzon, Roi Holzman

    Biological activity of the enantiomers of 3-methylhentriacontane, a queen pheromone of the ant Lasius niger
    Marine Motais de Narbonne, Jelle S. van Zweden, Jan E. Bello, Tom Wenseleers, Jocelyn G. Millar, Patrizia d'Ettorre
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2016 219: 1632-1638; doi: 10.1242/jeb.136069

    Summary: The two enantiomers of the black garden ant queen pheromone 3-methylhentriacontane are both effective in suppressing worker ovarian development but the (S)-enantiomer more effectively reduces aggressive behavior.

    Whiteflies stabilize their take-off with closed wings
    Gal Ribak, Eyal Dafni, Dan Gerling
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2016 219: 1639-1648; doi: 10.1242/jeb.127886

    Summary: Take-off jumps send whiteflies into the air rotating forward. Air resistance on the wings, in resting position, slows down and even stops the rotation of the body, prior to wing deployment and flapping.

    Beyond body size: muscle biochemistry and body shape explain ontogenetic variation of anti-predatory behaviour in the lizard Salvator merianae
    Fábio Cury de Barros, José Eduardo de Carvalho, Augusto Shinya Abe, Tiana Kohlsdorf
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2016 219: 1649-1658; doi: 10.1242/jeb.130740

    Summary: Juvenile and adult tegus exhibit different anti-predatory strategies at 22.5°C, which can be explained by differences in body size, limb proportions, jaw length and muscle biochemistry.

    Desiccation tolerance in Anopheles coluzzii: the effects of spiracle size and cuticular hydrocarbons
    Arthur C. Arcaz, Diana L. Huestis, Adama Dao, Alpha S. Yaro, Moussa Diallo, John Andersen, Gary J. Blomquist, Tovi Lehmann
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2016 219: 1675-1688; doi: 10.1242/jeb.135665

    Summary: Seasonal variation in desiccation tolerance of malaria mosquitoes is shaped by cuticular hydrocarbon composition and quantity and possibly by smaller spiracles. Seasonal allometries indicate season-specific developmental programs, consistent with aestivation.

    When navigating wood ants use the centre of mass of a shape to extract directional information from a panoramic skyline
    Joseph L. Woodgate, Cornelia Buehlmann, Thomas S. Collett
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2016 219: 1689-1696; doi: 10.1242/jeb.136697

    Summary: Ants can hold direction relative to a single shape in a panorama by learning the position of the shape's centre of mass on its retina when heading in the correct direction and thereafter keeping the shape's centre of mass in that desired retinal position.

    Cristina Otero-Rodiño, Cristina Velasco, Rosa Álvarez-Otero, Marcos A. López-Patiño, Jesús M. Míguez, José L. Soengas

Read & Publish participation extends worldwide

“Being able to publish Open Access articles free of charge means that my article gets maximum exposure and has maximum impact, and that all my peers can read it regardless of the agreements that their universities have with publishers.”

Professor Roi Holzman (Tel Aviv University) shares his experience of publishing Open Access as part of our growing Read & Publish initiative. We now have over 60 institutions in 12 countries taking part – find out more and view our full list of participating institutions.
