Vocalizations, feeding and flight behaviour of nectar-feeding bats (Glossophaga soricina and Leptonycteris yerbabuenae)
... When nectar-feeding bats converge on a food source, they may use vocal signals to minimize the risk of interference by others and maximize feeding efficiency. I conducted playback experiments with captive Pallas’ ...

Flight behaviour in humans is intensified by a candidate genetic risk factor for panic disorder: evidence from a translational model of fear and anxiety
... Human flight behaviour was measured with a computerised translation of a rodent runway task (figure 1 a) designed to index fear-proneness behaviourally, as the intensity of flight effort in response ...

The role of neurohormonal octopamine during 'fight or flight' behaviour in the field cricket Gryllus bimaculatus
... Antennal contact with a conspecific appears to be an important sensory stimulus for the increase in octopamine levels. Increases occurred when the animal contacted an anaesthetized cricket, suggesting that movement or ...
