Testing for imitative and nonimitative social learning in the budgerigar using a two-object/two-action test (2002, unknown): “Their repertoire of calls is acquired through vocal imitation (Farabaugh et al. 1994; Hile et al. 2000; Hile & Striedter 2001), and there is a substantial literature relating to budgerigar neurobiology (e.g. Jarvis & Mello 2000).”
Contact call diversity in wild orange-fronted parakeet pairs, Aratinga canicularis (2006, background): “There are many examples of calls providing individual-level (e.g. Earle 1986; Mathevon 1997; Maurello et al. 2000; McComb et al. 2000; Oda 2002) or group-level identity information (e.g. Mammen & Nowicki 1981; Farabaugh et al. 1994; Boughman 1997; Weilgart & Whitehead 1997; Hile & Striedter 2000).”
Learned vocal group signatures in the polygynous bat Saccopteryx bilineata (2012, background): “Call convergence among group members may have multiple implications ranging from group cohesion under highly mobile circumstances (Ford 1991; Boughman 1998; Hile & Striedter 2000) and affiliative interactions with social partners (Vehrencamp et al. 2003) to the exclusion of nongroup members.”
