| Arthropods smaller than 1 mm, ants, isopods, and arthropods with aposematic colorations were excluded from the counts because these are rarely consumed by insectivorous birds. |
| To further investigate the effects of prey contrast on predator behavior, I conducted an experiment with young chicks as predators on live aposematic and nonaposematic prey. |
| Many animals and insects that taste awful, sting or can otherwise turn a good day sour have adapted this warning-label strategy, known as aposematic coloration. |
| These include various lepidopterans and the African grasshopper, which adopt aposematic coloring as a warning. |
| Additionally, taxonomically troubling taxa such as Crataegus makes identification and quantification of aposematic species extremely difficult. |
| Coloration in skunks and stink badgers serves as an aposematic signal to would-be predators. |
