The paper models how secondary defenses evolve with and without predator signals, finding that defended and undefended prey can coexist under certain conditions when signals are absent.

This study investigates how Northern cardinals respond to different types of heterospecific alarm calls by analyzing changes in feeding, vigilance, and departure behaviors.

The paper shows that historical plague mortality records cannot uniquely identify ecological mechanisms due to parameter non-identifiability, even with detailed data.

The paper tests if host plants serve as cues for predators to distinguish defended prey from undefended prey, finding that wrens use plant identity to avoid chemically defended larvae.

This study finds that U.S. butterflies listed under the Endangered Species Act (ESA) receive more research attention, with increased publications after listing compared to non-listed species.
