  1. Is your research focused on the interface between communication and social complexity?

    Our new research topic, ‘#Coevolution of #social #communication systems and social #complexity’, invites submissions that summarise how these two aspects interact. In particular, we wish to explore the coevolutionary dynamics between social communication systems and the complexity of social organisation across the tree of life.

    📝 Submissions are open until 31 January 2027 in the journal Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution.

    📝 We have also set an interim deadline of 31 October 2026, by which you can send us an abstract of your manuscript before committing fully to writing a paper.

    You can find more information here: frontiersin.org/research-topic

    Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

  3. We're thrilled to welcome Dr Iliana Medina Guzman as a plenary speaker at #ABL2026! 🪲

    How do camouflage and warning colours shape the evolution of species? 🦜 Dr Medina Guzman (uni. of Melbourne) combines field experiments, comparative analyses, and evolutionary biology to reveal how antipredator defences influence colonisation, dispersal, and even speciation. 🦋

  36. Proboscis extension reflex (PER) is fairly well known in honeybees/bumblebees now - bee learns to associate a stimulus (e.g. odour) with food, and starts extending the proboscis when it smells the odour, even without food. (Pavlovian type stuff.) Mandela Fernández-Grandon & team have been adapting the assay to work on restrained hoverflies. #Ento24 #Syrphidae #BehaviouralEcology
