    Department of Biology, Saint Louis University, 3507 Laclede Avenue, St Louis, Missouri 63103, USA
    Ecology 88:26-31. 2007
    ..These results demonstrate that the loss of species at one trophic level can lead to reduced richness at lower trophic levels via competition and reduced temporal stability...

    Thomas J Valone
    Department of Biology, Saint Louis University, St Louis, MO 63103, USA
    Philos Trans R Soc Lond B Biol Sci 357:1549-57. 2002
    ..Such work should lead to a more complete understanding of the behaviour of individuals in social aggregations...

    Department of Biology, St Louis University, St Louis, Missouri 63103, USA
    Ecology 89:522-31. 2008
    ..As such, our review suggests that the insurance hypothesis may not be a strong mechanism stabilizing fluctuations in natural terrestrial communities...

    ..The use of public information is taxonomically widespread and can enhance fitness. Public information can lead to cultural evolution, which we suggest may then affect biological evolution...
