Aggressive mimicry in a coral reef fish: The prey's view (2020)
Journal Article
Pierotti, M., Wandycz, A., Wandycz, P., Rebelein, A., Corredor, V., Tashiro, J., …Loew, E. (2020). Aggressive mimicry in a coral reef fish: The prey's view. Ecology and Evolution, 10(23), 12990-13010. https://doi.org/10.1002/ece3.6883

Since all forms of mimicry are based on perceptual deception, the sensory ecology of the intended receiver is of paramount importance to test the necessary precondition for mimicry to occur, that is, model-mimic misidentification, and to gain insight...
