Animals in social groups need to differentiate between group members and others. In very large groups, such as those formed by many ant species, it is not possible to rely on individually specific cues to identify colonymates. Instead, recognition mu

Recognition systems are involved in a range of evolutionary and biological processes, and animals use a variety of visual, auditory, tactile and olfactory cues to determine the status of others. The use of chemical cues is widespread, occurring among

Cuticular hydrocarbons (CHCs) play an important role in insect recognition systems. A growing body of evidence indicates that insects are able to act upon the information contained in CHCs. However, investigating the behavioural response of insects t

The ability of social insects to differentiate between colony members and others is essential for the survival of the colony. It enables individuals to direct altruistic behavior towards colony mates, while protecting the colony from intruders. Colon

SummaryThe discovery of a non-reproductive soldier caste in a clonally reproducing trematode greatly extends the taxonomic distribution of eusociality and reaffirms the importance of relatedness in the evolution of reproductive altruism.

The evolution of territorial behavior requires that the benefits of territoriality outweigh the costs. The costs are primarily those of territorial defense against encroaching neighbors or against floaters seeking to establish their own territory. On

Recognition systems play a key role in a range of biological processes, including mate choice, immune defence and altruistic behaviour. Social insects provide an excellent model for studying recognition systems because workers need to discriminate be
