Phylogenetic comparative analysis

Global incidence of female birdsong is predicted by territoriality and biparental care in songbirds
Pronounced sexual dimorphism is generally assumed to evolve through sexual selection for elaborate male traits. However, there is …

The evolution of sexually dimorphic traits in ecological gradients: an interplay between natural and sexual selection in hummingbirds
Sex role similarity and sexual selection predict male and female song elaboration and dimorphism in fairy-wrens
Historically, bird song complexity was thought to evolve primarily through sexual selection on males; yet, in many species, both sexes …
