The editorial on camouflage describes concealment from predator detection against the background (e.g. disruption of salient outlines), but does not treat warning coloration as exploiting the same computation.
“disruptive coloration seemingly works by breaking up edge information, so that a predator may not detect a prey item because the salient outlines that may give away its presence have”
- And in ecology, predator detection of prey against background — broken by camouflage, exploited by warning coloration — is the same computation.
Verification¶
Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.
Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
