交流是完成生活任务的核心,协调交配、进食、战斗和群聚等活动。为了取得成功,这些任务通常局限于个人自身进化谱系的成员,或同种基因。识别同种异种的能力通常被称为“物种识别”。在这里,我总结了与物种识别概念相关的困难,并描述了一个感知-概念框架,用于考虑生物体识别特定群体成员的过程。最近发表的侧重于物种识别的研究根据这一框架进行了强调和讨论,我最后阐述了因挑战早期的物种识别概念而产生的公开和基本的问题。
Communication is central to accomplishing the tasks of life, coordinating activities like mating, feeding, fighting, and flocking. To be successful, these tasks are often restricted to members of an individual's own evolutionary lineage, or conspecifics. The ability to recognize conspecifics is often termed "species recognition." Here, I summarize the difficulties associated with the concept of species recognition and describe a perceptual-conceptual framework for considering the processes by which organisms recognize members of a particular group. Recently published studies that focus on species recognition are highlighted and discussed in light of that framework, and I conclude by articulating open and fundamental questions that arise from challenging earlier notions of species recognition.
