Social status affects the degree of sex difference in the songbird brain. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 It is thought that neural sex differences are functionally related to sex differences in the behaviour of vertebrates. A prominent example is the song control system of songbirds. Inter-specific comparisons have led to the hypothesis that sex differences

A CRITICAL DISCOURSE ANALYSIS ON THE REPRESENTATION OF FEMALE IDOLS IN THE “IDOL” SONG LYRIC BY YOASOBI: FROM THE FEMINISM POINT OF VIEW [PDF]
Jurnal Japanedu: Pendidikan dan Pengajaran Bahasa Jepang, 2023 Each song lyric has a message that the writer wants to convey to the listener about what the writer feels and thinks. This research discusses how Japanese female idols are represented in the opening soundtrack of the anime song “Oshi no Ko” which is ...

Female Song in the Hooded Warbler
Northeastern Naturalist, 2003 Abstract One female Hooded Warbler (Wilsonia citrina) was discovered singing in July 1993, and another in May 1996 among a color-banded breeding population under investigation. The first female's song structurally resembled the typical male Hooded Warbler mixed-mode song in duration, frequency range, and number of syllables, although it had an atypical

Mate choice in adult female Bengalese finches: females express consistent preferences for individual males and prefer female-directed song performances. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 In the process of mate selection by female songbirds, male suitors advertise their quality through reproductive displays in which song plays an important role.

Female copulation song is modulated by seminal fluid [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2020 AbstractIn most animal species, males and females communicate during sexual behavior to negotiate reproductive investments. Pre-copulatory courtship may settle if copulation takes place, but often information exchange and decision-making continue beyond that point. Here, we show that female Drosophila sing by wing vibration in copula.

Female song in New World wood warblers
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2015 Recent advances have revealed that female birdsong is widespread and multifunctional. Female song was likely ancestral among songbirds and persists in many lineages today.

Ecology and Evolution, 2021 Conspicuous female signals have recently received substantial scientific attention, but it remains unclear if their evolution is the result of selection acting on females independently of males or if mutual selection facilitates female change.

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2016 Birdsong is a culturally transmitted mating signal. Due to historical and geographical biases, song (learning) has been predominantly studied in the temperate zones, where female song is rare.

PLoS ONE, 2021 Production and perception of birdsong critically depends on early developmental experience. In species where singing is a sexually dimorphic trait, early life song experience may affect later behavior differently between sexes. It is known that both male

Female in-nest chatter song increases predation [PDF]
Biology Letters, 2016 Female song is an ancestral trait in songbirds, yet extant females generally sing less than males. Here, we examine sex differences in the predation cost of singing behaviour. The superb fairy-wren ( Malurus cyaneus ) is a Southern Hemisphere songbird; males and females provision the brood and produce solo song year-
