Rattlesnakes shake their tail rattles as aposematic warnings. |
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. |
Clusters amplify the signal of aposematic coloration, and individuals may participate in group regurgitation or displays. |
These include various lepidopterans and the African grasshopper, which adopt aposematic coloring as a warning. |
Regression of the shell, development of aposematic colorations, and acquisition of toxic defenses are general evolutionary trends within the group. |
Coloration in skunks and stink badgers serves as an aposematic signal to would-be predators. |
