DESCRIPTION:Complex communication systems can emerge even among evolutionar
 ily distant species\, raising questions about how cues and signals evolve 
 and support coordination. One striking case is the collaborative hunting b
 etween octopuses and reef-associated fish\, where each partner exploits di
 stinct foraging strengths. Field observations and experiments show that th
 ese interactions rely on a mix of passive cues and intentional signals\, s
 uch as referential gestures. Octopuses adjust their behavior depending on 
 partner species and context\, sometimes responding punitively to exploitat
 ive fish. Beyond movement\, information may also be relayed to other indiv
 iduals through colour change. This multidimensional dynamic use of signals
  and cues\, based on both movement and potentially color\, raises compelli
 ng questions about the boundary between passive and active communication\,
  and how much each contributes to group coordination and success. To furth
 er probe these mechanisms\, we combine field experiments using robotic fis
 h with computational simulations to understand how simple rules and comple
 x cognition jointly shape communication in multispecies hunting groups.\nV
