1.
Ascah L, Igic B, Magrath R
Biol Lett . 2025 Mar; 21(3):20240710. PMID: 40068828
Animals often eavesdrop on other species' alarm calls to gain information about danger, but this can allow for deception by callers. Such deception often uses 'aerial' alarm calls, which normally...

Igic B, Farber R, Alfaro-Ramirez M, Nelson M, Taylor L
Int J Popul Data Sci . 2023 Aug; 8(1):1751. PMID: 37636833
Introduction: The patient journey for residents of New South Wales (NSW) Australia with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) often involves transfer between hospitals and these can include stays in hospitals in...

Stuart-Fox D, Newton E, Mulder R, DAlba L, Shawkey M, Igic B
PLoS One . 2018 Jul; 13(7):e0199129. PMID: 29975724
Research on the optical properties of animal integuments, including fur, feather, skin and cuticle, has focussed almost exclusively on animal-visible wavelengths within the narrow range of 300-700 nm. By contrast,...

Igic B, DAlba L, Shawkey M
Naturwissenschaften . 2018 Feb; 105(3-4):18. PMID: 29445955
White colouration is a common and important component of animal visual signalling and camouflage, but how and why it varies across species is poorly understood. White is produced by wavelength-independent...

Luro A, Igic B, Croston R, Lopez A, Shawkey M, Hauber M
Ecol Evol . 2018 Feb; 8(3):1673-1679. PMID: 29435242
Rothstein (Behavioral Ecology and Sociobiology, 11, 1982, 229) was one of the first comprehensive studies to examine how different egg features influence egg rejection behaviors of avian brood parasite-hosts. The...

Shawkey M, Igic B, Rogalla S, Goldenberg J, Clusella-Trullas S, DAlba L
Naturwissenschaften . 2017 Sep; 104(9-10):78. PMID: 28871351
The visible spectrum represents a fraction of the sun's radiation, a large portion of which is within the near infrared (NIR). However, wavelengths outside of the visible spectrum that are...

Hanley D, Grim T, Igic B, Samas P, Lopez A, Shawkey M, et al.
Proc Biol Sci . 2017 Feb; 284(1848). PMID: 28179521
Accurate recognition of salient cues is critical for adaptive responses, but the underlying sensory and cognitive processes are often poorly understood. For example, hosts of avian brood parasites have long...

Igic B, DAlba L, Shawkey M
J Exp Biol . 2016 Jun; 219(Pt 12):1851-9. PMID: 27307543
Males of many species often use colourful and conspicuous ornaments to attract females. Among these, male manakins (family: Pipridae) provide classic examples of sexual selection favouring the evolution of bright...
9.
Magrath R, Haff T, McLachlan J, Igic B
Curr Biol . 2015 Jul; 25(15):2047-50. PMID: 26190077
Many vertebrates gain critical information about danger by eavesdropping on other species' alarm calls [1], providing an excellent context in which to study information flow among species in animal communities...

Hauber M, Aidala Z, Igic B, Shawkey M, Moskat C
Anim Cogn . 2015 Jun; 18(5):1133-41. PMID: 26118673
Obligate brood parasitic birds exploit their hosts to provide care for unrelated young in the nest. Potential hosts can reduce the cost of parasitism by rejecting foreign eggs from the...
