Synopsis:
This book examines behavioral adaptations of tropical birds in timing of breeding, life history traits, mating systems and parental care, te rritoriality, communication, and biotic interactions, and emphasizes t he many gaps in our knowledge of tropical birds. We urge students and researchers in temperate and tropical regions alike to realize the pot ential they have for improving our knowledge of avian adaptations far beyond what is currently accepted as gospel. Time is running out.
