Barking foxes, Alopex lagopus: field experiments in individual recognition in a territorial mammal (2003, result): “Our conclusion concerning the importance of spectral parameters in individual recognition parallels those of Rendall et al. (1998) on rhesus macaques and Fitch & Kelley (2000) on whooping cranes, Grus americana.”
The contribution of source–filter theory to mammal vocal communication research (2010, background): “…variation has been demonstrated in several species using habituation-discrimination paradigms (rhesus macaque: Fitch & Fritz, 2006; whooping crane: Fitch & Kelley, 2000) and the behavioural consequences of formant discrimination have been investigated (red deer: Reby et al., 2005; Charlton, Reby…”
Black and White Colobus Monkey (Colobus guereza) Roars as a Source of Both Honest and Exaggerated Information About Body Mass (2006, background): “…have shown that many vertebrates are capable of discriminating formant differences (Japanese macaques: Sommers et al. 1992; whooping cranes: Fitch & Kelley 2000; baboons: Hienz et al. 2004; red deer: Reby et al. 2005), suggesting that roar formant dispersion is a potential source of honest…”
Unpacking “Honesty”: Vertebrate Vocal Production and the Evolution of Acoustic Signals (2003, background): “Such analysis/synthesis techniques provide an extremely powerful way to isolate the relevant acoustic parameters in bioacoustic communication systems; these are only starting to be explored (Owren and Bernacki 1988, 1998, Fitch and Kelley, 2000).”
Size Communication in domestic dog (Canis familiaris) growls. (2010, unknown): “…experiments in several species (red deer: Charlton et al. 2007a; rhesus macaques: Fitch & Fritz 2006; whooping cranes, Grus americana: Fitch & Kelley 2000), and these studies have shown that information encoded by formants is salient across many types of terrestrial vertebrates.”
Vocal-Tract Resonances as Indexical Cues in Rhesus Monkeys (2007, unknown): “Only recently have such synthetic vocalizations been used successfully in animal playback experiments (whooping cranes [27], red deer [28], and rhesus monkeys [29]).”
Female perception of size-related formant shifts in red deer, Cervus elaphus (2007, unknown): “The alternatives of cycling the habituation sequence until the hinds ceased to respond (Fitch & Kelley 2000) or habituating according to a preset criterion (Gifford et al. 2003) were rejected because these would have taken a variable amount of time between individuals.”
