The evolution of primate vocal communication: a social route
There is no doubt that different factors determine the evolutionary trajectory of a species' communication abilities. Beyond habitat, social life is likely a selection pressure.

Acoustic communication is an important part of behaviour in many bird taxa. In most woodpecker species drumming functions in mate attraction and territory defence.

We evaluated the individual and geographic variation in the territorial songs of five populations of Scelorchilus rubecula. The results suggest individually consistency in songs and vocal variation among individuals of S. rubecula. This high consistency

Hyperkinetic stereotyped movements in a boy with biallelic CNTNAP2 variants
Background Heterozygous variants in CNTNAP2 have been implicated in a wide range of neurological phenotypes, including intellectual disability (ID), epilepsy, autistic spectrum disorder (ASD), and impaired language.

Symbols are not uniquely human [PDF]
Modern semiotics is a branch of logics that formally defines symbol-based communication. In recent years, the semiotic classification of signs has been invoked to support the notion that symbols are uniquely human.

Wild chimpanzees' use of single and combined vocal and gestural signals [PDF]
We describe the individual and combined use of vocalizations and gestures in wild chimpanzees. The rate of gesturing peaked in infancy and, with the exception of the alpha male, decreased again in older age groups, while vocal signals showed the opposite

Convergent differential regulation of parvalbumin in the brains of vocal learners. [PDF]
Spoken language and learned song are complex communication behaviors found in only a few species, including humans and three groups of distantly related birds--songbirds, parrots, and hummingbirds.

The Vocal Repertoire of Pale Spear-Nosed Bats in a Social Roosting Context
Commonly known for their ability to echolocate, bats also use a wide variety of social vocalizations to communicate with one another. However, the full vocal repertoires of relatively few bat species have been studied thus far. The present study examined
