Fear no colors? Observer clothing color influences lizard escape behavior (2017)
Journal Article
Putman, B., Drury, J., Blumstein, D., & Pauly, G. (2017). Fear no colors? Observer clothing color influences lizard escape behavior. PLoS ONE, 12(8), Article e0182146. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0182146

Animals often view humans as predators, leading to alterations in their behavior. Even nuanced aspects of human activity like clothing color affect animal behavior, but we lack an understanding of when and where such effects will occur. The species c...

Estimating the effect of competition on trait evolution using maximum likelihood inference (2016)
Journal Article
Drury, J., Clavel, J., Manceau, M., & Morlon, H. (2016). Estimating the effect of competition on trait evolution using maximum likelihood inference. Systematic Biology, 65(4), 700-710. https://doi.org/10.1093/sysbio/syw020

Many classical ecological and evolutionary theoretical frameworks posit that competition between species is an important selective force. For example, in adaptive radiations, resource competition between evolving lineages plays a role in driving phen...

RPANDA: an R package for macroevolutionary analyses on phylogenetic trees (2016)
Journal Article
Morlon, H., Lewitus, E., Condamine, F., Manceau, M., Clavel, J., & Drury, J. (2016). RPANDA: an R package for macroevolutionary analyses on phylogenetic trees. Methods in Ecology and Evolution, 7(5), 589-597. https://doi.org/10.1111/2041-210x.12526

A number of approaches for studying macroevolution using phylogenetic trees have been developed in the last few years. Here, we present RPANDA, an R package that implements model‐free and model‐based phylogenetic comparative methods for macroevolutio...

The ecological and evolutionary stability of interspecific territoriality (2016)
Journal Article
Losin, N., Drury, J., Peiman, K., Storch, C., & Grether, G. (2016). The ecological and evolutionary stability of interspecific territoriality. Ecology Letters, 19(3), 260-267. https://doi.org/10.1111/ele.12561

Interspecific territoriality may play an important role in structuring ecological communities, but the causes of this widespread form of interference competition remain poorly understood. Here, we investigate the phenotypic, ecological and phylogenet... Read More about The ecological and evolutionary stability of interspecific territoriality.

Reproductive interference explains persistence of aggression between species (2015)
Journal Article
Drury, J., Okamoto, K., Anderson, C., & Grether, G. (2015). Reproductive interference explains persistence of aggression between species. Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 282(1804), Article 20142256. https://doi.org/10.1098/rspb.2014.2256

Interspecific territoriality occurs when individuals of different species fight over space, and may arise spontaneously when populations of closely related territorial species first come into contact. But defence of space is costly, and unless the be... Read More about Reproductive interference explains persistence of aggression between species.

Interspecific aggression, not interspecific mating, drives character displacement in the wing coloration of male rubyspot damselflies (Hetaerina) (2014)
Journal Article
Drury, J., & Grether, G. (2014). Interspecific aggression, not interspecific mating, drives character displacement in the wing coloration of male rubyspot damselflies (Hetaerina). Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 281(1796), Article 20141737. https://doi.org/10.1098/rspb.2014.1737

Traits that mediate intraspecific social interactions may overlap in closely related sympatric species, resulting in costly between-species interactions. Such interactions have principally interested investigators studying the evolution of reproducti...
