High-Pitched Notes during Vocal Contests Signal Genetic Diversity in Ocellated Antbirds

Animals use honest signals to assess the quality of competitors during aggressive interactions. Current theory predicts that honest signals should be costly to produce and thus reveal some aspects of the phenotypic or genetic quality of the sender. In songbirds, research indicates that biomechanical...
