Amanda's Curriculum Vita

   My general research interest is in communication.  My current thesis research is investigating the response of female wood crickets (Gryllus vernalis) to variations of conspecific and heterospecific calling song, to determine how often females make mating mistakes.  Additionally, I am looking for differences in responses of females from areas of sympatry with the presumed sister species Gryllus fultoni versus responses of females from areas of allopatry.

 

Cricket picture borrowed from http://buzz.ifas.ufl.edu/470pm.htm an excellent website I recommend you check out.

Another wonderful site for web designers is http://javascript.internet.com from which all the scripts on the site were obtained.
