White-backed fire-eye antbird

... that the fire-eye antbirds' (pictured) calls instead of songs are used to tell the species apart?

Source: In a 2017 study, researchers found that "when [they] examined Pyriglena

vocalizations in this context, the outcomes revealed substantial diversity in their calls, rather than their songs [thus it] underscores the need to consider all vocalizations in taxonomic studies."

No copyvio, reliable sources, good image, sufficient length of article. Suggesting a slightly shorter hook: ALT1 ... that the fire-eye antbirds' (pictured) use calls (not songs) to identify different antbird species? Jaireeodell (talk) 20:37, 6 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Jaireeodell: Hooks must not contain parentheses outside of (pictured) per WP:DYK200.--Laun chba ller 16:41, 8 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Launchballer: Thanks! I didn't know that. Would this work? ALT1 ... that the fire-eye antbirds' (pictured) use calls, not songs, to identify different antbird species? Jaireeodell (talk) 21:36, 9 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Fine by me, though I recommend ALT1a: ... that fire-eye antbirds (pictured) use calls to identify different antbird species rather than songs?. It's the same as ALT0 with no new information, so you could approve it yourself.--Laun chba ller 13:21, 10 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
