Resumen
Bird communication is a growing field of study in ethology and evolutionary biology; however, most known studies were conducted only in the northern hemisphere. We measured six temporal and structural features of golden-billed saltator (Saltator aurantiirostris) song and recorded 57 vocalizations at Parque San Martı ´ n reserve (Argentina). Results indicated that the prelude represented between two and four syllables, while the trill was composed of one to three. The complete song always contained six syllables. Maximum and minimum frequencies were higher in the trill. The duration of prelude and trill did not differ between vocalizations. Modifications and differences observed in vocalizations may be explained by the acoustic adaptation hypothesis, which predicts higher frequencies in open habitats. Our results broaden and supplement the data available for this species in Argentina, representing useful information for studies intended to assess the effect of different habitats on bird?s vocalizations in southern South America
