Journal Article
Benvenuto, C., Coscia, I., Chopelet, J., Sala-Bozano, M., & Mariani, S. (2017). Ecological and evolutionary consequences of alternative sex-change pathways in fish. Scientific reports, 7(9804), https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-017-09298-8

Sequentially hermaphroditic fish change sex from male to female (protandry) or vice versa (protogyny), increasing their fitness by becoming highly fecund females or large dominant males, respectively. These life-history strategies present different s... Read More about Ecological and evolutionary consequences of alternative sex-change pathways in fish.

Quantifying pigment cover to assess variation in animal colouration (2017)
Journal Article
Siegenthaler, A., Mondal, D., & Benvenuto, C. (2017). Quantifying pigment cover to assess variation in animal colouration. Biology Methods and Protocols, 2(1), bpx003. https://doi.org/10.1093/biomethods/bpx003

The study of animal colouration addresses fundamental and applied aspects relevant to a wide range of fields, including behavioural ecology, environmental adaptation and visual ecology. Although a variety of methods are available to measure animal... Read More about Quantifying pigment cover to assess variation in animal colouration.
