Ethology, Volume 132, Issue 7, Page 466-476, July 2026.We raised fall field crickets in acoustic environments of silence, their own song, traffic noise, or the song of the recently introduced Japanese burrowing cricket and measured development, size, and adult survival. We found that crickets reared with burrowing cricket song developed more quickly than crickets reared in silence.

Neural Plasticity, 2020 Anterior forebrain pathway (AFP), a basal ganglia-dorsal forebrain circuit, significantly impacts birdsong, specifically in juvenile or deaf birds. Despite many physiological experiments supporting AFP’s role in song production, the mechanism underlying ...

Sleep, Learning, and Birdsong [PDF]
ILAR Journal, 2010 Neuroethological research combines approaches derived from animal behavior and neurobiology to examine the neuronal mechanisms of behavior, often in the context of laboratory experiments on species chosen for particular adaptations. Typically, these species are not traditional laboratory animals yet they contribute greatly to a broad, evolutionarily ...

Anuran call properties as reliable indicators of environmental suitability for reproduction
Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment, Volume 24, Issue 5, June 2026.The onset of animal breeding activity is often accompanied by auditory signals, typically produced by males, that indicate reproductive status to potential mates and competitors. Here, using male anuran advertisement calls as a case study, we present the novel hypothesis that characteristics of ectotherm auditory signals that are modulated by ...

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, Volume 345, Issue 5, Page 498-507, June 2026.We demonstrated that Awaous tajasica performs facultative air breathing under experimental conditions of dissolved oxygen limitation, retaining air bubbles in the buccal cavity during gill ventilation. Morpho‐functional evidence indicates the use of atmospheric oxygen as a respiratory support under conditions of low water oxygenation.

Journal of Field OrnithologyEnvironmental stress, especially during development, can cause important phenotypic changes in individuals. In songbirds, these stress-induced changes have been shown to include impaired learning of song and reduced song complexity in several species ...

Honest signaling and oxidative stress: the special case of avian acoustic communication
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2016 Much research on animal communication has addressed how costs or constraints determined by the oxidative status of an individual can assure the honesty of visual signals, such as sexually selected color ornaments. However, acoustic communication has been

Embodied urban design: Fostering nature connectedness for pro‐conservation behaviour
People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 6, Page 1728-1741, June 2026.Abstract Those who feel more connected with nature are more likely to act in ways that support biodiversity. How connected people feel with nature depends in part on how meaningfully it figures into their experience of the built environment. Despite an increase in urban greening measures, these approaches often overlook how people perceive, interact ...
