These data are important when considering the role of environmental fluctuations on signal evolution as different sensory modalities will be differentially affected. * Author for correspondence...

One explanation may be attentional: in humans, for example, the presence of an olfactory stimulus can influence visual attention ( Ho and Spence, 2005 ; Michael et...
