Vocal behaviour of Sclater's Wrens, a duetting Neotropical songbird: repertoires, dawn chorus variation, and song sharing

Marcos Quiroz-Oliva et al.

Summary: By studying the vocal behavior of Sclater's Wrens, it was found that males and females have sexually dimorphic songs, with females having only one song type while males possess multiple song types. Duet formation in this species involves both sexes combining their songs. Additionally, the study revealed that the number of songs shared between males decreases with increasing geographical distance, indicating a correlation between song learning and territorial proximity.

Leukocyte profile variation in Dupont's Lark (Chersophilus duponti) in Spain and Morocco

Daniel Bustillo-de la Rosa et al.

Summary: The study examined the stress variation in Dupont's Lark, finding that H/L ratio did not vary between countries but was higher in individuals captured during the breeding season. Higher body condition was associated with lower H/L ratio, while malaria-infected individuals had higher H/L values. The study gives new insights into the species' biology and provides valuable reference information for assessing the status and survival of other populations.
