Our new paper on bird vocal amplitude is out in @sse-evolution.bsky.social ! Across 123 species, we found two new contenders for world’s loudest bird: bare-throated bellbird and seriema Along with the white bellbird, both can reach jackhammer-level amplitudes! doi.org/10.1093/evolut/qpag153

More generally we found that: • larger species tend to sing louder • species with broader beak gapes tend to sing louder • habitat, mating system, and aerial mobility showed no clear effects

Colored bars around the outside represent measured vocal amplitudes. The most prominent high-amplitude bars occur in the bellbirds (Cotingidae) and red-legged seriema (Cariamidae).
