Abstract: Cerebral laterality is a widespread phenomenon across animals and refers to the specialization of the left and right hemispheres of the brain for perceptual, cognitive and behavioural tasks. Behavioural laterality occurs in several contexts, including… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/1357650x.2020.1781877
Abstract: ABSTRACT Many studies have highlighted evidence of lateralized behaviours in vertebrates and invertebrates, indicating that cerebral lateralization might not be uniquely human. Flamingos, as highly social species, might represent an interesting model in the study… read more here.

DOI: 10.1242/jeb.191676
Abstract: ABSTRACT Several vertebrates, including fish, exhibit behavioural laterality and associated morphological asymmetry. Laterality may increase individual fitness as well as foraging strength, accuracy and speed. However, little is known about which behaviours are affected by… read more here.
