Animals often gather information from other species by eavesdrop** on signals intended
for others. We review the extent, benefits, mechanisms, and ecological and evolutionary …

How learning affects vocalizations is a key question in the study of animal communication
and human language. Parallel efforts in birds and humans have taught us much about how …

Coevolutionary theory predicts that the most common long‐term outcome of the
relationships between brood parasites and their hosts should be coevolutionary cycles …

Incubating new ideas about avian reproduction/SJ Reynolds & DC Deeming--The fossil
record and evolution of avian egg nesting and incubation/DC Deeming--Nest construction …

In many species, embryos can perceive and learn external sounds. Yet, the possibility that
parents may use these embryonic capacities to alter their offspring's developmental …

In recent years, the impact of prenatal sound on development, notably for programming
individual phenotypes for postnatal conditions, has increasingly been revealed. However …

Vocal production is hierarchical in the time domain. These hierarchies build upon
biomechanical and neural dynamics across various timescales. We review studies in …

During the last 50 years, comparative cognition and neurosciences have improved our
understanding of animal minds while evolutionary ecology has revealed how selection acts …

Marine turtles have long been considered to be silent, but few investigations have been
performed to confirm such muteness. However, recent studies on the aerial and underwater …

Juvenile songbirds learn vocal communication from adult tutors of the same species but not
from adults of other species. How species-specific learning emerges from the basic features …
