Gutierrez S, Bernal X, Searle C
Ecol Evol
. 2025 Jan;
15(1):e70778.
PMID: 39839329
Predation can alter diverse ecological processes, including host-parasite interactions. Selective predation, whereby predators preferentially feed on certain prey types, can affect prey density and selective pressures. Studies on selective predation...

Acta Biomater
. 2024 Dec;
192():165-174.
PMID: 39674243
Unlike organisms equipped with tympanal ears, mosquitoes hear using their antennae, which are lightweight sensory structures capable of detecting sound. Here, we study the antennae of two species - Aedes...

Messerly A, Mularo A, Longo A, Bernal X
J Exp Zool A Ecol Integr Physiol
. 2024 Jul;
341(8):903-912.
PMID: 38946593
Salinity can be an environmental stressor for anurans, as their highly permeable skin makes them prone to osmotic stress when exposed to saline conditions. However, certain anuran species have colonized...

Bio Protoc
. 2024 Jun;
14(11):e4996.
PMID: 38873019
Many studies on mosquito biology rely on laboratory-reared colonies, emphasizing the need for standardized protocols to investigate critical aspects such as disease biology, mosquito behavior, and vector control methods. While...

Leavell B, Pantoja-Sanchez H, Velez V, Hemingway C, Wilhite K, Halfwerk W, et al.
Proc Biol Sci
. 2023 Dec;
290(2013):20231910.
PMID: 38113943
Emitting conspicuous signals into the environment to attract mates comes with the increased risk of interception by eavesdropping enemies. As a defence, a commonly described strategy is for signallers to...

Pantoja-Sanchez H, Leavell B, Rendon B, de-Silva W, Singh R, Zhou J, et al.
J Exp Biol
. 2023 Nov;
226(24).
PMID: 37942703
Most mosquito and midge species use hearing during acoustic mating behaviors. For frog-biting species, however, hearing plays an important role beyond mating as females rely on anuran calls to obtain...

Philos Trans R Soc Lond B Biol Sci
. 2023 Apr;
378(1878):20220109.
PMID: 37066659
Individuals from multiple species often aggregate at resources, group to facilitate defense and foraging, or are brought together by human activity. While it is well-documented that host-seeking disease vectors and...

Bernal X, Page R
Biol Rev Camb Philos Soc
. 2022 Sep;
98(1):222-242.
PMID: 36176190
Eavesdropping predators, parasites and parasitoids exploit signals emitted by their prey and hosts for detection, assessment, localization and attack, and in the process impose strong selective pressures on the communication...

. 2022 Apr;
199(5):653-665.
PMID: 35472015
AbstractTo thoroughly understand the drivers of dynamic signal elaboration requires assessing the direct and indirect effects of naturally interacting factors. Here, we use structural equation modeling to test multivariate data...
