Molecular basis of low salinity limits in euryhaline decapod crustaceans
Meeting Abstract 15.10 Wednesday, Jan. 4 Molecular basis of low salinity limits in euryhaline decapod crustaceans HENRY, RP*; SERRANO, L; Auburn University; Auburn University henryrp@auburn.edu Euryhaline crustaceans make the transition from osmoconformity to osmoregulation at about 26 ppt salinity, and this ability allows them to survive in very dilute estuarine waters. But even these organisms have a […]

Singing out from sky islands sunbird song evolution across the Eastern Afromontane
Meeting Abstract 15.1 Friday, Jan. 4 Singing out from sky islands: sunbird song evolution across the Eastern Afromontane MCENTEE, JP*; PENALBA, J; BOWIE, RCK; University of California, Berkeley jaymcentee@yahoo.com Song evolution is thought to be important to the diversification of extant birds, because songs are functionally critical in social interactions such as mate choice and are thought […]
Pheromone Evolution and Reproductive Isolation in Dusky Salamanders
Meeting Abstract 15.4 Friday, Jan. 4 Pheromone Evolution and Reproductive Isolation in Dusky Salamanders STEFFEN, MA*; BONETT, RM; University of Tulsa michael-steffen@utulsa.edu Conspecific mate recognition signals can delimit species boundaries and structure communities. However, signals and mate choice are evolutionarily labile, and few studies have examined the impact of signal discordance on lineage diversification in adaptive radiations. […]
