| In most areas, doves establish year-round feeding territories that are defended against conspecifics. |
|
| Their large eyes probably help them locate conspecifics and aid in visual communication, if any exists. |
|
| Similarly, the population must be effectively isolated from wintering conspecifics. |
|
| With the exception of African lions, female felids are intolerant of other conspecifics of the same gender. |
|
| Relatively little is known of P. spathula behavior towards conspecifics or members of different species. |
|
| The size of a pair's territory and the extent to which they defend it from conspecifics depends on the species and the habitats. |
|
| Juvenile salmon clearly avoided kin when they shared shelters and preferred to associate with unrelated conspecifics. |
|
| We collected green iguana eggs from the island of Curacao in the Caribbean, where green iguanas attain much smaller maximum body size compared to conspecifics in Panama. |
|
| Frigatebirds may kill chicks and eggs of conspecifics and congeners. |
|
| It is widely accepted that the male palp fits specifically into the female epigynum of conspecifics. |
|
| If a badger dies within the sett, its conspecifics will seal off the chamber and dig a new one. |
|
| They are also able to distinguish between familiar and unfamiliar conspecifics. |
|
| The presence of conspecifics was simulated by playback through portable MP3 reproducers and speakers installed on tree trunks. |
|
| Swordtail fry attend to chemical and visual cues in detecting predators and conspecifics. |
|
| This was expected since interacting with conspecifics should lead to more neurogenomic changes than just observing conspecifics. |
|
| There was no significant difference in the growth rate of hornworms that were placed with older conspecifics versus those in containers with no older conspecifics. |
|
| Vibrations can provide cues to conspecifics about specific behaviors being performed, predator warning and avoidance, herd or group maintenance, and courtship. |
|
| A potential predator may stop when it knows it has been detected, or an alarm call can allow conspecifics or related individuals to take evasive action. |
|
| For soniferous otophysans, decreased auditory sensitivity is particularly harmful because it may reduce the capacity to detect acoustic signals from conspecifics. |
