Overcoming the phantoms of the past: Influence of predatory stimuli on the antipredator behavior of island pitvipers
The reduction of predation is a potentially important factor for the evolution of the traits of an island animal species. By relaxed selection, insular animals tend to lose their antipredator behaviors. A monophyletic group of pitvipers (genus Bothrops) in southeastern Brazil, which have high geneti...
