Anatomical bases of sex- and size-related acoustic variation in herring gull alarm calls [PDF]
The hypothesis that anatomical or physiological factors can constrain the production of vocalizations is supported by an increasing number of examples from a range of taxa, where acoustic variation is related to sex, body-size or condition. In this study,

Evolution of supraorbital ossification in Charadriiformes [PDF]
ABSTRACT Phylogenetic analysis of morphological data on 92 species in the order Charadriiformes showed that increased supraorbital ossification (SO) has evolved independently at least 4 times in this clade. Principal component analysis of size-corrected skeletal measures showed that an evolutionary increase in SO was associated with a body plan in ...
