Statolith Morphometrics Can Discriminate among Taxa of Cubozoan Jellyfishes
Identification of potentially harmful cubomedusae is difficult due to their gelatinous nature. The only hard structure of medusae, the statolith, has the potential to provide robust measurements for morphometric analysis. Traditional morphometric length to width ratios (L: W) and modern morphometric Elliptical Fourier Analysis (EFA) were applied to proximal, oral and lateral statolith faces of ...
متن کاملListeners can discriminate among major chord positions.
Listeners judged whether two sequentially presented major chords were the same. When both chords were based on the same root, listeners discriminated between different chord positions, e.g., root position, first inversion, second inversion. The ability of listeners to discriminate between chord positions suggests that harmonic equivalence of different chord positions does not depend on perceptu...
متن کاملCan Automatically Extracted Rhythmic Units Discriminate among Languages?
This paper deals with rhythmic modeling and its application to language identification. Beside phonetics and phonotactics, rhythm is actually one of the most promising features to be considered for language identification, but significant problems are unresolved for its modeling. In this paper, an algorithm dedicated to rhythmic segmentation is described. Experiments are performed on read speec...
متن کاملDogs can discriminate barks from different situations
We investigated if dogs can discriminate barks of another individual recorded in two markedly different situations: (a) when a stranger entered the property where the dog lived, and (b) when the dog was tethered to a tree and left alone. We used a habituation–dishabituation paradigm for testing discriminatory abilities. Three 25-s long samples of ‘‘stranger’’ bark were followed by a single ‘‘al...
متن کاملSmall passerines can discriminate ultraviolet surface colours.
Hollow-dwelling passerine birds were tested for UV surface colour discrimination by using the instinct to bring food to nestlings that makes a bird search for the nest under changing conditions. The experiments were carried out on breeding pairs of pied flycatcher (Muscicapa hypoleuca), great tit (Parus major) and tree sparrow (Passer montanus) in the wild by the method of alternative choice of...
