Cover: Male túngara frogs (Physalaemus pustulosus) produce courtship calls that are accompanied by conspicuous vocal sac inflation (live male, top panel). Females assess male multimodal signals consisting of a call and vocal sac inflation, although the call is dominant. Using a robotic frog with an inflatable vocal sac (bottom two panels), Taylor et al. (pp. 815−820) showed that when the robofrog's vocal sac was inflated asynchronously with the call, females discriminated against the robofrog. This indicates that although the vocal sac is a secondary signal component, it can strongly modulate mate choice.

Sharpshooting archerfish brake to overcome recoil
Archerfish are exceptional snipers and now it turns out that they use their fins as brakes to counteract the recoil that would submerge them when taking out a target with a jet of water.
Responses of terrestrial polar arthropods to high and increasing temperatures
In a Review of thermal adaptation of polar terrestrial arthropods to high temperatures, Bahrndorff et al. conclude that a large variation in upper thermal limits exists across polar regions, habitats and species.
