Ultraviolet Vision in Birds
- I. Cuthill, J. Partridge, A. Bennett, S. Church, N. Hart, S. Hunt
- Biology
- 2000
Publisher Summary Birds can see ultraviolet (UV) light because, unlike humans, their lenses and other ocular media transmit UV, and they possess a class of photoreceptor, which is maximally sensitive… Expand
Is the ultraviolet waveband a special communication channel in avian mate choice?
- S. Hunt, I. Cuthill, A. Bennett, S. Church, J. Partridge
- Biology, Medicine
- The Journal of experimental biology
- 15 July 2001
There is growing evidence that ultraviolet (UV) wavelengths play an important role in avian mate choice. One of the first experiments to support this idea showed that female zebra finches… Expand
Avian colour vision and avian video playback experiments
- I. Cuthill, N. Hart, J. Partridge, A. Bennett, S. Hunt, S. Church
- Biology
- acta ethologica
- 1 December 2000
Abstract Video playback potentially allows the presentation, manipulation, and replication of realistic moving visual stimuli, in a way that is impossible with real animals or static dummies, and… Expand
Ultraviolet cues affect the foraging behaviour of blue tits
- S. Church, A. Bennett, I. Cuthill, J. Partridge
- Biology
- Proceedings of the Royal Society of London…
- 22 August 1998
The function of avian ultraviolet (UV) vision is only just beginning to be understood. One plausible hypothesis is that UV vision enhances the foraging ability of birds. To test this, we carried out… Expand
Ultraviolet vision and mate choice in the guppy (Poecilia reticulata)
- E. Smith, J. Partridge, +4 authors S. Church
- Biology
- 2002
Ultraviolet (UV) vision is well documented for many species of vertebrates. UV cues are known to be used in foraging, navigation and in mate choice. We conducted a series of behavioral experiments to… Expand
Spectral irradiance and foraging efficiency in the guppy, Poecilia reticulata
- E. M. White, S. Church, Laura J. Willoughby, Sarah J. Hudson, J. Partridge
- Biology
- Animal Behaviour
- 1 March 2005
The spectral composition of the light environment can have important implications for visually mediated behaviours. We examined how spectral irradiance influences the behaviour of guppies foraging… Expand
The effects of the light environment on prey choice by zebra finches.
- S. Maddocks, S. Church, I. Cuthill
- Medicine, Biology
- The Journal of experimental biology
- 15 July 2001
Recent research has highlighted the extent to which birds utilise ultraviolet vision in mate choice and foraging. However, neither the importance of the ultraviolet compared with other regions of the… Expand
Does Lepidopteran Larval Crypsis Extend into the Ultraviolet?

Ultraviolet dermal reflexion and mate choice in the guppy, Poecilia reticulata
- E. M. White, J. Partridge, S. Church
- Biology
- Animal Behaviour
- 1 April 2003
Abstract Some fish, including the guppy, have the ability to perceive ultraviolet (UV) wavelengths. Female guppies prefer to associate with males that are viewed under light conditions that include… Expand
Does prey dispersion affect frequency-dependent predation by wild birds?
Abstract Despite the fact that the vast majority of natural prey items are dispersed in a non-random manner, few studies of frequency-dependent selective predation have explicitly examined the effect… Expand
