DOI: 10.1007/s10164-018-0583-7
Abstract: Different strategies have evolved in response to predation pressure. Many species use acoustic signals to communicate about the presence of predators, and some of them use non-vocal sounds. Here, we evaluated the role of the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/09524622.2016.1231080
Abstract: Abstract Vocalizations have been elucidated in previous songbird studies, whereas less attention has been paid to non-vocal sounds. In the blue-capped cordon-bleu (Uraeginthus cyanocephalus), both sexes perform courtship displays that are accompanied by singing and… read more here.

Shift down, look up: A test of the non-linearity and fear hypothesis in a non-vocal skink

DOI: 10.1111/eth.12839
Abstract: Editor: J. Schneider Abstract The non‐linearity and fear hypothesis predicts that certain non‐linear sounds are one way to evoke antipredator responses in both birds and mammals. This hypothesis, however, has not been studied in non‐vocal… read more here.

DOI: 10.1523/eneuro.0109-20.2020
Abstract: Abstract A region within songbird cortex, dorsal intermediate arcopallium (AId), is functionally analogous to motor cortex in mammals and has been implicated in song learning during development. Non-vocal factors such as visual and social cues… read more here.

Rates of ultrasonic vocalizations are more strongly related than acoustic features to non-vocal behaviors in mouse pups

DOI: 10.3389/fnbeh.2022.1015484
Abstract: Mouse pups produce. ultrasonic vocalizations (USVs) in response to isolation from the nest (i.e., isolation USVs). Rates and acoustic features of isolation USVs change dramatically over the first two weeks of life, and there is… read more here.

Hissing of geese: caller identity encoded in a non-vocal acoustic signal

DOI: 10.7717/peerj.10197
Abstract: Non-vocal, or unvoiced, signals surprisingly have received very little attention until recently especially when compared to other acoustic signals. Some sounds made by terrestrial vertebrates are produced not only by the larynx but also by… read more here.
