Behavioural evidence for the perception of individual identity and gender via the echolocation calls of a high duty cycle bat, Rhinolophus clivosus

Author: Finger, Nikita Maxine Date: 2015 Different cognitive processes underlie the perception of vocalizations in many mammals, including humans. This perception now extends to a highly specialized form of sonar called echolocation. In habituation-dishabituation experiments, a high ... Read more
Investigation of population abundance, distribution, and population linkage of Indo-Pacific Bottlenose Dolphins (Tursiops aduncus) on the north and south of Zanzibar using mark-recapture and acoustic methods

Author: St Clair-Hughes, Adam James Victor Date: 2017 Previous studies, using a variety of methods such as photographic identification, fisheries observer programs, or genetic testing, on Indo-Pacific bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops aduncus) around Zanzibar Island, Tanzania, suggest separate ...

Listening carefully: increased perceptual acuity for species discrimination in multispecies signalling assemblages

Author: Bastian, Anna ; Jacobs, David Steve Date: 01 Mar 2015 Communication is a fundamental component of evolutionary change because of its role in mate choice and sexual selection. Acoustic signals are a vital element of animal communication and sympatric species may use private frequency bands to ... Read more
Phenotypic convergence in genetically distinct lineages of a Rhinolophus species complex (Mammalia, Chiroptera)

Author: Jacobs, David S ; Babiker, Hassan ; Bastian, Anna ; Kearney, Teresa ; Eeden, Rowen van ; Bishop, Jacqueline M Date: 2013 Phenotypes of distantly related species may converge through adaptation to similar habitats and/or because they share biological constraints that limit the phenotypic variants produced. A common theme in bats is the sympatric occurrence of ... Read more c b
The role of echolocation in communication in a high duty cycle echolocating bat, Rhinolophus clivosus (Chiroptera: Rhinolophidae): an experimental approach

Author: Raw, Robert Date: 2016 Acoustic communication plays a pivotal role in species recognition across a number of taxa. Species must therefore maintain discrete acoustic signatures to facilitate communication and avoid misidentification. The Acoustic Communication ... Read more
To seek or speak? Dual function of an acoustic signal limits its versatility in communication

Author: Finger, Nikita M ; Bastian, Anna ; Jacobs, David S Date: 2017 The perception of different attributes of conspeciﬁcs is an integral part of intraspeciﬁc communication. It can facilitate the recognition of interaction partners or the assessment of potential mates. Acoustic signals can encode ﬁne-scaled ... Read more c b n d
