“…In a separate study, we were interested in how a component of this signal, rhythm, that is in part used for species recognition is also influenced by sexual selection. We find that greater SSD values positively predict whether complex cadences and acceleration patterns are present in a particular species (Miles et al, 2020). Woodpecker species with larger males are therefore more likely to produce a drum that either increases or decreases in speed (or both) at a linear (e.g., consistent slowdown in interbeat interval) or non-linear cadence (e.g., exponential increase in inter-beat interval speed).…”

“…Individuals, for example, might modify the drum's speed (number of beats produced over time) or length (total number of beats) (Figure 2). Likewise, individuals can adjust elements of the signal's rhythm by altering elements of cadence (description of how speed changes over time) or acceleration (description of the direction of speed change over time) (see Figure 2; Miles et al, 2018Miles et al, , 2020. Of course, individuals may also modify amplitude (volume) or dominant frequencies within the broadband spectra that define beat acoustics.…”

“…Yet, given their widespread presence within this clade 41 (Fig. 1b ) and some evidence of sexual selection on drumming duration and cadence 43 , 52 , 54 , 55 , we predicted (1) that signal structure has evolved to at least maintain, and potentially increase, species-specific information during the clade radiation, and (2) that drumming signals provide sufficient information to allow receivers to discriminate conspecifics from sympatric woodpecker species.
