Are bird species that vocalize at higher frequencies preadapted to inhabit noisy urban areas (2009, background): “…1988; Cramp and Brooks 1992; Cramp et al. 1993; Cramp and Perrins 1994a, 1994b), and for the Australian species, the Handbook of Australian, New Zealand and Antarctic Birds (Marchant and Higgins 1990, 1993; Higgins and Davies 1996; Higgins 1999; Higgins et al. 2001, 2006; Higgins and Peter 2002).”
Avifaunal disarray due to a single despotic species (2013, background): “The noisy miner belongs to the avian family Meliphagidae (honeyeaters) whose species typically feed on a mix of insects, nectar and fruit (Higgins et al., 2001).”
An avian eavesdropping network: alarm signal reliability and heterospecific response (2009, background): “Fairy-wrens (9–10 g; Maluridae) and scrubwrens (12–14 g; Acanthizidae) are small cooperatively breeding passerines (Magrath et al. 2000; Higgins et al. 2001; Magrath 2001).”
Funds enough, and time: mtDNA, nuDNA and the discovery of divergence (2009, background): “This Australian bird is distributed across northeastern Queensland and the Northern Territory; it is generally considered to comprise two subspecies that intergrade southeast of Cape York (Higgins et al. 2001).”
Nestling begging increases predation risk, regardless of spectral characteristics or avian mobbing (2009, background): “The predators that could be identified to species level were also those previously reported for bell miners in this region (Major and Kendal 1996; Higgins et al. 2001).”
