Nature's chefs: Uniting the hidden diversity of food making and preparing species across the tree of life

BioScience, 73(6), 408–421.

By: B. Taylor n, B. Allf n, S. Hopkins n, R. Irwin n, M. Jewell, O. Nevo*, L. Nichols n, N. Rodríguez Valerón* ...

author keywords: drink; food; fruit; mimic; mutualism; nectar; nuptial gift; plating
TL;DR: This article identifies three ways that species can produce or prepare meals—as food, drinks, or lures—and further distinguish between those providing an honest meal and those deceiving consumers with food mimics. (via Semantic Scholar)

Microevolutionary change in mimicry? Potential erosion of rattling behaviour among nonvenomous snakes on islands lacking rattlesnakes

ETHOLOGY ECOLOGY & EVOLUTION, 33(2), 125–136.

By: B. Allf n, A. Sparkman* & D. Pfennig*

author keywords: acoustic mimicry; Batesian mimicry; evolution on islands; Gophersnakes; microevolution; Pituophis catenifer pumilis
TL;DR: Comparing Gophersnakes from mainland California versus nearby derived island populations (where rattlesnakes are absent), it is found that mainland snakes vibrated their tail for a longer duration, thereby producing a signal more similar to rattling, which lends some support to the longstanding hypothesis that defensive tail vibration by nonvenomous snakes represents acoustic mimicry of rattling snakes.
