Signature:……………………………………… iv ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Firstly, I want to thank mainly my supervisors Dr Mika Peck and Dr Alice Eldridge for the unconditional support along this journey. Without their guidance and motivation, this thesis would not have been the same. I want to thank Mika Peck for placing his trust in me from the beginning and allowing me get there; and because for many years he has been not only my supervisor, but a friend in the fight and in the dreaming. Thank you for the smiles and good cheer during the highs and lows throughout the doctorate. I want to thank Alice Eldridge for letting me discover and study the world of soundscape, because in addition to a great supervisor, she has become a friend and companion of ideas. Without her motivation, tenacity and rigour this work would certainly not be the same; Thanks to both for allowing me to explore and develop my "weird" ideas within the world of academia. I feel very lucky to have had you as supervisors. This work would not have been possible without the financial support of the Ecuador’s Secretary of Higher Education, Science, Technology and Innovation (SENESCYT) Grant Programme, so my sincere thanks to it. Special thanks to the people who collaborated at some point of this PhD: Noe Morales, Josep Navarro, Claire Reboha, Galo Conde, Wagner Encarnación, Joseph Cooper, Daniel Ingram, Nathaly Silvana Urbina and Daniel Chavez, for helping in the collection of data in the field and for the good times in the field work; to Manuel Sánchez, Jaime Culebras and Gabriel Aznar for the expert identification and their academic guidance of birds and amphibians. To Raúl Nieto, Yadira and Patricio Paredes, Amilcar Albán, Malu Gavilanez for welcoming us warmly in their homes and allowing me to carry out the field study and research. In the same way I want to sincerely thank Simon Wibberley, Juan Freile, Suhas Bashme and Ma. Fernanda Moscoso, for their academic acumen; John Platt for the English edits of the thesis and Josep Navarro for editing the graphics. Undoubtedly I want to thank my family enormously for their love, unconditional support and for being the "impellers of my machine" and motivating me to do this PhD. As well as my friends in England who have been like my family in this country: Esra Demirkol, Mariana Pinho de Alemida, Joseph Cooper, Lorena Guzman, Suhas Bashme, Maria Clara Castellanos and the whole group "usual suspects" and my colleagues in the office Kate Basley and Janine Griffiths-Lee and other friends of the JMS 5th floor. To my friends and “hermanos” in Ecuador, Sofía Serrano, Amaranta Valencia, Catalina Lizarzaburo, Anahís Cordova, Gabriel Barreto, Alicia Franco, Stephanie Toran, Nathalia Fuentes and Felipe Alfonso for being a great support for me during this time.

  • Divergence in Nest Placement and Parental Care of Neotropical Foliage‐Gleaners and Treehunters (Furnariidae: Philydorini)
    J. Field Ornithol. 88(4):336–348, 2017 DOI: 10.1111/jofo.12227 Divergence in nest placement and parental care of Neotropical foliage-gleaners and treehunters (Furnariidae: Philydorini) Kristina L. Cockle,1,2,3,4 and Alejandro Bodrati2 1Instituto de Bio y Geociencias del NOA (IBIGEO-CONICET-UNSa), 9 de julio 14, Rosario de Lerma, Salta 4405, Argentina 2Proyecto Selva de Pino Parana, Velez Sarsfield y San Jurjo SN, San Pedro, Misiones 3352, Argentina 3Department of Forest and Conservation Sciences, University of British Columbia, 2424 Main Mall, Vancouver, British Columbia V6T 1Z4, Canada Received 25 July 2017; accepted 23 September 2017 ABSTRACT. The Neotropical ovenbirds (Furnariidae) are an adaptive radiation of suboscines renowned for the diversity of their nests. Like most altricial insectivores, they generally exhibit biparental care. One tribe, Philydorini, includes 46 species thought to nest in either underground burrows or tree cavities, nest types traditionally treated as equivalent in phylogenetic studies. Their parental care systems are poorly known, but could help illuminate how uniparental care – typically associated with frugivory – can arise in insectivores. We examined the extent to which nest placement, parental care, and associated reproductive traits map onto two major clades of Philydorini identified by genetic hypotheses. We review published literature and present new information from the Atlantic Forest of Argentina, including the first nest descriptions for Ochre-breasted Foliage-gleaners (Anabacerthia lichtensteini) and Sharp-billed Treehunters (Heliobletus contaminatus). In the Automolus-Thripadectes-Clibanornis clade (including Philydor rufum), 134 of 138 reported nests were in underground burrows. In the Syndactyla-Anabacerthia-Anabazenops clade (including Heliobletus, Philydor atricapillus, and Philydor erythrocercum), 44 of 48 nests were in tree cavities.

  • Supplemental Wing Shape and Dispersal Analysis
    Data Supplement High dispersal ability inhibits speciation in a continental radiation of passerine birds Santiago Claramunt, Elizabeth P. Derryberry, J. V. Remsen, Jr. & Robb T. Brumfield Museum of Natural Science and Department of Biological Sciences, Louisiana State University, Baton Rouge, LA 70803, USA HAND-WING INDEX AND FLIGHT PERFORMANCE IN NEOTROPICAL FOREST BIRDS We investigated the relationship between wing shape and flight distances determined during 'dispersal challenge' experiments conducted in Gatun Lake in the Panama Canal (Moore et al. 2008). During the experiments, birds were released from a boat at incremental distances from shore and the distance flown or the success or failure in reaching the coast was recorded. To investigated the relationship between the hand-wing index and flight distance in Neotropical birds we used data on mean distance flown from table 3 in ref. We estimated hand-wing indices for the 10 species reported in those experiments (Table S1) . Wing measurements were taken by SC for four males of each species at LSUMNS. The relationship between the hand-wing index and distance flown was evaluated statistically using phylogenetic generalized least-squares (PGLS, Freckleton et al. 2002). We generated a phylogeny for the species involved in the experiment or an appropriate surrogate using DNA sequences of the slow-evolving RAG 1 gene from GenBank (Table S2). A maximum likelihood ultrametric tree was generated in PAUP* (Swofford 2003) using a GTR+! model of nucleotide substitution rates, empirical nucleotide frequencies, and enforcing a molecular clock. We found that the hand-wing index was strongly related to mean distance flown (R2 = 0.68, F = 20, d.f.

  • Interspecific Social Dominance Mimicry in Birds
    bs_bs_banner Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2014. With 6 figures Interspecific social dominance mimicry in birds RICHARD OWEN PRUM1,2* 1Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, Yale University, New Haven, CT 06520-8150, USA 2Peabody Natural History Museum, Yale University, New Haven, CT 06520-8150, USA Received 3 May 2014; revised 17 June 2014; accepted for publication 21 July 2014 Interspecific social dominance mimicry (ISDM) is a proposed form of social parasitism in which a subordinate species evolves to mimic and deceive a dominant ecological competitor in order to avoid attack by the dominant, model species. The evolutionary plausibility of ISDM has been established previously by the Hairy-Downy game (Prum & Samuelson). Psychophysical models of avian visual acuity support the plausibility of visual ISDM at distances ∼>2–3 m for non-raptorial birds, and ∼>20 m for raptors. Fifty phylogenetically independent examples of avian ISDM involving 60 model and 93 mimic species, subspecies, and morphs from 30 families are proposed and reviewed. Patterns of size differences, phylogeny, and coevolutionary radiation generally support the predic- tions of ISDM. Mimics average 56–58% of the body mass of the proposed model species. Mimics may achieve a large potential deceptive social advantage with <20% reduction in linear body size, which is well within the range of plausible, visual size confusion. Several, multispecies mimicry complexes are proposed (e.g. kiskadee- type flycatchers) which may coevolve through hierarchical variation in the deceptive benefits, similar to Müllerian mimicry. ISDM in birds should be tested further with phylogenetic, ecological, and experimental investigations of convergent similarity in appearance, ecological competition, and aggressive social interactions between sympatric species.
