Accordingly, longer-lived and more socially complex animals will be exposed to larger variability and unpredictability over the course of their life, but this is something different from the kinds of cognitive skills that are conventionally given emphasis to and may be achieved not (only) via brain size but also neuronal circuitry. 2011;81:43946. Reader SM, MacDonald K. Environmental variability and primate behavioural flexibility. Once thought as a cognitively-demanding feature of logical thinking and reasoning, it is now recognised that transitive inference can also be achieved through relatively simple associative mechanisms ([191] and [192] for reviews) or probably through a combination of both [193, 194].

Fraser ON, Bugnyar T. Ravens reconcile after aggressive conflicts with valuable partners. PubMed Central PubMed The distribution of developmental modes in the5420 mammal species is not as straightforward [30], but seems to be correlated with body size or mass, gestation period, and/or number of offspring: larger mammals are more likely to produce very few precocial young per litter [30, 3740] whereas small mammals are more likely altricial and produce more young.

Hence, for a comparative study, a pivotal question to assess social complexity is how to measure the strength and/or quality of bonds between individuals [17, 7274], as not all measures are comparable or, perhaps, of equal importance across species. In: Squire LR, editor. Brain Behav Evol. Nature. Transitive inference has been described across a range of taxa, ranging from fish to primates ([195], Table 2), and although it has been described in altricial birds and mammals as well as precocial birds (Table1), it has not been tested specifically in any precocial mammal. In precocial species, young require limited parental care and are relatively mature, mobile and can either mainly feed self-sufficiently (precocial birds) or forage independently from early on while still being nursed (precocial mammals). le Roux A, Snyder-Mackler N, Roberts EK, Beehner JC, Bergman TJ.

In mammals, expansion of the cerebral cortex plays a major role in managing social interactions, whereas in birds and seemingly socially complex marsupials, social interactions are regulated by the homologous enlarged telencephalon [4346], but with keeping in mind that hardly any information on the social system of marsupials is available.

Overduin-de Vries AM, Spruijt BM, de Vries H, Sterck EHM. 2016;47:72430. Once again, there is an ongoing debate as to whether the ability to recognise others is cognitively demanding, as it can either be achieved through cognitively simpler means, such as differentiating between more or less familiar individuals (class level recognition ([148], but see [149]), or through recognition of unique individual features (true individual recognition), which is thought to require specific cognitive adaptations [150]. Accordingly, we do not know if evolutionary history of social complexity supports this link nor, if it exists, the causality between developmental mode and social complexity. 2012;121:10215.

Precociality puts a premium on the ability of females to obtain abundant resources before laying. - marginal offspring are handicapped by the parents and are produced so that parents can take advantage of a good year if one occurs to rear bonus offspring. In other words, although there are studies on the effects of developmental mode on brain size, on the effects of brain size on cognition, and on the effects of cognition on social complexity, there are no studies directly investigating the link between developmental mode and social complexity.

Behav Ecol. 2011;14:58598. 2012;8:247. Regardless of developmental mode, some birds and mammals can also recognise unfamiliar kin based on phenotypic traits [155, 156, 177, 178]. Although there are not many studies on social memory, those conducted to date seem to indicate that the mode of development has no influence on either the duration that animals may remember socially relevant individuals [180184] or on keeping track of hierarchical relationships [185187]. 2001;115:2441. One of our aims here is to survey the existing literature to determine whether social complexity is related to variation in developmental mode in mammals and birds, the two most extensively studied vertebrate taxa in this regard. Bone strength, which reflects the resistance of bones to fracture, has attracted the most research attention. Fox AD, Boyd H, Bromley RG. The larval stage of insect development is considered by some to be a form of altricial development, but it more accurately depicts, especially amongst eusocial animals, an independent phase of development, as the larvae of bees, ants, and many arachnids are completely physically different from their developed forms, and the pre-pupal stages of . In precocial primates, for example, cooperatively breeding Callitrichidae (marmosets and tamarins) outperform their closest relatives, independently breeding squirrel- and capuchin-monkeys (Cebidae), in socio- but not non-socio cognitive contexts [135] despite the fact that they possess relatively small brains [136, 137].
