Neighbour–stranger discrimination in an African wood dove inhabiting equatorial rainforest by Małgorzata Niśkiewicz, Paweł Szymański, Lia Zampa, Michał Budka, Tomasz S. Osiejuk

“…Abstract We investigated within- and between-individual song variation and song-based neighbour-stranger discrimination in a non-learning bird species, the blue-headed wood-dove (Turtur brehmeri), which inhabits lowland rainforests of West and Central Africa. We found that songs of this species are individually specific and have a high potential for use in individual recognition based on the time–frequency pattern of note distribution within song phrases. …”

Leaf plasticity of species under different light intensities in an urban rainforest by Maria José de Holanda Leite

“…Assuming that the light availability is a good predictor of the variation of the leaf characteristics, we hypothesized that in environments with a higher light incidence, there will be a greater variation on leaf characteristics (mean and standard deviation) in an urban rainforest fragment. After confirming that geographic distances did not influence the values of the leaf variability indices, Linear Mixed Models (LMMs) were constructed to verify the influence of light intensity on leaf characteristics. …”
