Halfwerk W, Blaas M, Kramer L, Hijner N, Trillo P, Bernal X, et al.
Nat Ecol Evol . 2018 Dec; 3(3):374-380. PMID: 30532046
Urbanization can cause species to adjust their sexual displays, because the effectiveness of mating signals is influenced by environmental conditions. Despite many examples that show that mating signals in urban...

Kvifte G, Bernal X
Zookeys . 2018 Nov; (795):39-48. PMID: 30429656
Kvifte & Bernal, is described based on one male and six female specimens collected at 2200 m a.s.l. on Mount Wilhelm, Papua New Guinea. The species is the fourth species...

Zlotnik S, Darnell G, Bernal X
Anim Cogn . 2018 Jun; 21(5):729-733. PMID: 29922864
Predators everywhere impose strong selection pressures on the morphology and behavior of their prey, but the resulting antipredator adaptations vary greatly among species. Studies of adaptive coloration in prey species...

Miller A, Page R, Bernal X
Anim Cogn . 2017 Oct; 21(1):55-65. PMID: 29030724
Exploratory behavior can be a key component of survival in novel or changing environments, ultimately determining population establishment. While many studies have investigated the behavior of wild animals in response...

McMahon T, Rohr J, Bernal X
Ecology . 2017 Feb; 98(5):1290-1299. PMID: 28170099
Studies on the consequences of urbanization often examine the effects of light, noise, and heat pollution independently on isolated species providing a limited understanding of how these combined stressors affect...

Trillo P, Bernal X, Caldwell M, Halfwerk W, Wessel M, Page R
Proc Biol Sci . 2016 May; 283(1831). PMID: 27194694
Although males often display from mixed-species aggregations, the influence of nearby heterospecifics on risks associated with sexual signalling has not been previously examined. We tested whether predation and parasitism risks...

Bernal X, Miguel Pinto C
Int J Parasitol Parasites Wildl . 2016 Mar; 5(1):40-7. PMID: 26977404
Trypanosomes are a diverse group of protozoan parasites of vertebrates transmitted by a variety of hematophagous invertebrate vectors. Anuran trypanosomes and their vectors have received relatively little attention even though...

Beaty L, Emmering Q, Bernal X
Anat Rec (Hoboken) . 2016 Jan; 299(4):421-7. PMID: 26815928
Sexual dimorphism in the ratio of digit lengths has been correlated to behavioral, physiological, and morphological traits in a variety of taxa. While sexual dimorphism in the second-to-fourth digit length...

Baugh A, Ryan M, Bernal X, Rand A, Bee M
Behav Neurosci . 2015 Dec; 130(1):62-74. PMID: 26692450
In humans and some nonhuman vertebrates, a sound containing brief silent gaps can be rendered perceptually continuous by inserting noise into the gaps. This so-called "continuity illusion" arises from a...

Bernal X, de Silva P
J Vector Ecol . 2015 Jun; 40(1):122-8. PMID: 26047192
We investigated the role of carbon dioxide and host temperature in host attraction in frog-biting midges (Corethrella spp). In these midges, females are known to use frog calls to localize...
