Abstract Many organisms possess remarkable abilities to orient and navigate within their environment to achieve goals. We examined the orientation behavior of a riparian spider, the Long‐Jawed Orb Weaver (Tetragnatha elongata), when displaced onto

The origin and biogenesis of tetrodotoxin (TTX) is one of the most interesting and perplexing questions remaining for TTX researchers. Newts can possess extreme quantities of TTX and are one of the most well-studied of all TTX-bearing organisms, yet

We investigated the concentration of tetrodotoxin (TTX) in sections of skin containing and lacking red dorsal spots in both Eastern newt (Notophthalmus viridescens) efts and adults. Several other species, such as Pleurodeles waltl and Echinotriton an

Velvet ants are a group of parasitoid wasps that are well-known for a suite of defensive traits including bright coloration, a thick exoskeleton, and a painful sting. Previous experiments have demo...

Strategies of resource acquisition are subject to change due to introduced pressures placed upon individual animals. The pressures of food deprivation and competition can lead to a drastic change in previously established strategies of resource acqui

Velvet ants are a group of parasitic wasps that are well known for a suite of defensive adaptations including bright coloration and a formidable sting. While these adaptations are presumed to function in antipredator defense, observations between pot

Male eastern newts (Notophthalmus viridescens) exhibit tremendous variation in several characteristics, including the number of dorsal spots, the brightness of those spots, tail depth and tail length. These traits could be used by females for mate se

Learning is crucial to the survival of organisms across their life span, including during embryonic development. We set out to determine when learning becomes possible in amphibian development by exposing spotted salamander (Ambystoma maculatum) embr

Many organisms utilize toxic or noxious compounds as a means of deterring predation. Eastern newts (Notopthalmus viridescens), along with other species in the family Salamandridae, possess a potent neurotoxin called tetrodotoxin (TTX). Although TTX c
