“…For a group lacking distinctive coloration such as pipits, vocal characters may be more informative than morphology. Vocal characters been used as a discriminating factor between local populations of several Old World pipit species (Elf-str€ om 1990, Osiejuk et al 2007, De Swardt 2010, Petruskov a et al 2010. We can thus expect pipit vocalizations to differ also at larger geographical scales and between allopatric populations within species.…”

Previous investigations of the systematics of Neotropical pipits Anthus revealed multiple cases of paraphyly. We revised the species limits of this group based on sequence data of mitochondrial (ND2) and nuclear genes (ACOI9, MB, FGB5) from 39 tissue samples of all 22 subspecies‐level taxa in the New World Anthus clade, as well as analysis of display song. We found that Anthus lutescens peruvianus is not part of Yellowish Pipit Anthus lutescens genetically or vocally; thus, we elevate peruvianus to species rank (Peruvian Pipit). Anthus lutescens abariensis Chubb (Bull. Br. Orn. Club., 41, 1921a, 79) should be placed in synonymy with Anthus lutescens parvus (instead of A. l. lutescens), at least until further morphological or vocal data become available. Paramo Pipit Anthus bogotensis is likewise paraphyletic, with Anthus meridae sister to all other bogotensis subspecies and also to Hellmayr's Pipit Anthus hellmayri. However, placement of the taxon is based on a relatively short stretch of mitochondrial DNA, and further data are needed. Andean populations of Short‐billed Pipit Anthus furcatus are split as Puna Pipit Anthus brevirostris, based on genetic and vocal data. South Georgia Pipit Anthus antarcticus is, at least genetically, part of Correndera Pipit Anthus correndera, and we recommend considering it a subspecies of Correndera Pipit, in line with the taxonomy of other morphologically distinct but genetically little‐differentiated insular bird taxa.

“…In order not to present only a summary of the results and to avoid the problem of pseudoreplication possibly skewed to territories with a higher number of observations (due to birds' activity and/or the weather), we also used a number of territories where a number of given song posts were observed. Moreover, some males were recorded and this study of vocalisation pattern is published separately (Osiejuk et al 2007).…”

“…The Tawny Pipit (Anthus campestris) is one of the temperate songbird species for which field studies have reported that both sexes sing (Neuschulz 1986;Alström and Mild 2003;Calero-Riestra and García 2019). Although the Tawny Pipit song is simple, males of this species apparently possess individually unique song types (Neuschulz 1986;Osiejuk et al 2007), andNeuschulz (1986) mentioned that they seem stable between two consecutive seasons. The individuality and stability of their song would make this pipit species suitable for IAM.…”

“…In addition, birds often rely on vocalizations to recognize conspecifics from others (Matyjasiak 2005;Hick et al 2016;Hodgson et al 2018;Darolová et al 2020). Recognition might also take place at the individual level if birds show consistent individually distinctive patterns in their acoustic signals (e.g., Terry et al 2005;Osiejuk et al 2007;Petrusková et al 2016). In this way, birds can discriminate between familiar and unfamiliar conspecifics in different social contexts (e.g., neighbour vs. stranger discrimination, parent-offspring recognition, kin recognition; Lambrechts and Dhondt 1995).…”

Guess who? Evaluating individual acoustic monitoring for males and females of the Tawny Pipit, a migratory passerine bird with a simple song

Individual acoustic monitoring (IAM), based on the analysis of vocal cues, is particularly suitable for the identification and tracking of birds with temporally stable song or call characteristics. Unlike mark-recapture methods, IAM does not require the physical manipulation of individuals, which can have long-lasting behavioural effects. So far, IAM has usually focused on males, as singing females tend to be overlooked in temperate zones. Here, we evaluated the suitability of IAM for both sexes in an isolated population of the Tawny Pipit (Anthus campestris, Motacillidae), a migratory Palearctic species critically endangered in Central Europe, for which female singing has been occasionally documented. We confirmed that songs of all 101 studied individuals, both males and females, were individually distinct. Most individuals used only a single song type in their repertoires, with only three males using two. Of 45 ringed males (that could be unambiguously recognized visually), only two changed their song structure to some extent, either within or between seasons. Multiple individuals often sang structurally similar song types, which nevertheless consistently differed in minor characteristics; such differences were detectable by visual inspection and also affected quantitative analyses of song similarity. Songs sung by females did not have any apparent sex-specific characteristics. Unlike previously suggested, females did not adapt their vocalization to their breeding partner, and we presume their song is also temporally stable. Our findings support IAM as a reliable approach for studying the behaviour and ecology of this passerine species with a small repertoire and simple songs.
