Residency in white-eared hummingbirds (Hylocharis leucotis) and its effect in territorial contest resolution
BACKGROUND Territory owners usually defeat intruders. One explanation for this observation is the uncorrelated asymmetry hypothesis which argues that contests might be settled by an arbitrary convention such as "owners win." We studied the effect of territorial residency on contest asymmetries in the white-eared hummingbird (Hylocharis leucotis) in a fir forest from central Mexico. METHODS Tw...
متن کاملLight and electron microscopic study of the tongue in the White-eared bulbul (Pycnonotus leucotis)
The aim of the present study was to investigate the light and electron microscopic structure of the tongue in White-eared bulbul (Pycnonotus leucotis). Six adult White-eared bulbul (3 males and 3 females) in Shahrekord district were used in the investigation. Samples of the apex, body and root of the tongue were prepared routinely for light and electron microscopic study. Results showed that th...
متن کاملFemale hummingbirds do not relocate rewards using colour cues
http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.anbehav.2014.04.036 0003-3472/ 2014 The Association for the Study of A Males generally outperform females in spatial tasks. This difference in spatial performance may reflect differences in cue preference because males often use both spatial cues (distance and direction) and feature cues, whereas females prefer to use feature cues. However, studies in birds are few a...

متن کاملLocation Memory: Separate Cortical Coding for Distal and Local Cues
Entorhinal cortex is implicated in coding the location of spatial cues: a new study has found that distinct regions of entorhinal cortex respond differentially to distal versus local cues when these cues are rotated in conflict with one another.
