Singing fish take their cues from melatonin.
Jumping spiders (Salticidae) are renowned dancers, but until recently, the music of their courtship was thought to fall on deaf ears. No one had heard of spiders being able to perceive sounds until a recent serendipitous finding published in Current Biology by Ronald Hoy and colleagues from Cornell University, USA. Having previously shown that the spiders rely heavily on vision as they strut th...
متن کاملTaking Turns and Talking Ties: Networks and Conversational Interaction
Conversational encounters are permeable to network effects but not entirely so, for conversation is internally structured by sequential constraints and dependencies that limit the latitude people have to act on their relational commitments. The author analyzes the effects of hierarchical (superior-subordinate) and horizontal (friendship and co-working) networks on “participation shifts”—transit...
متن کاملMice take calculated risks.
Animals successfully navigate the world despite having only incomplete information about behaviorally important contingencies. It is an open question to what degree this behavior is driven by estimates of stochastic parameters (brain-constructed models of the experienced world) and to what degree it is directed by reinforcement-driven processes that optimize behavior in the limit without estima...
متن کاملVocal Ontogeny in Neotropical Singing Mice (Scotinomys)
Isolation calls produced by dependent young are a fundamental form of communication. For species in which vocal signals remain important to adult communication, the function and social context of vocal behavior changes dramatically with the onset of sexual maturity. The ontogenetic relationship between these distinct forms of acoustic communication is surprisingly under-studied. We conducted a ...
متن کاملTalking Robot and the Autonomous Acquisition of Vocalization and Singing Skill
Voice is used as primary media in the human communication. It is employed not only in simple daily communication, but also for the logical discussions and the expression of emotion and feelings. Different vocal sounds are generated by the complex movements of vocal organs under the feedback control mechanisms using an auditory system. Vocal sounds and human vocalization mechanisms have been the...
