Together with Lisa Anne Taylor (U Florida) and Nate Morehouse (U Pittsburgh), I am currently co-organizing a symposium entitled "Color signals in terrestrial invertebrates: integrating senders and receivers" for the 2014 Meeting of the International Society for Behavioral Ecology (ISBE) at Hunter College in New York City. The symposium will take place on August 1st. The aim is to advance an integrated view of the role color plays in animal behavior by bringing together researchers working on both color vision and coloration in terrestrial invertebrates. We hope to showcase recent exciting advances in this area, leading to a more complete understanding of the roles of senders and receivers of color signals, in the context of their visual habitats.
