Chemical communication: A jewel sheds light on signal evolution

Lassance, Jean-Marc and Löfstedt, Christer LU (2013) In Current Biology 23(9). p.346-348
Abstract
When others show sexy tails or sing elaborate songs, many animals use the language of chemistry to attract potential mates. A study provides insights into the evolutionary conundrum of how new chemical signals can evolve in an established communication system.
