Like Music to our Ears
It is known that bird vocalizations and music share acoustic similarities. Unsurprisingly, bird sounds inspired a number of music composers. In music, complexity plays an important role in auditory attractiveness. Would sound complexity also be important to explain the attractiveness of bird vocalizations to humans? In our study, we experimentally assessed the preference for vocalizations according to their level of complexity, indicated by objec…
Does the selection of medicinal plants by Brazilian local populations suffer taxonomic influence
Results indicate that the chemical specificity of taxonomic groups directly influences medicinal plant selection. Moreover, when data presented here are compared to other studies, there is clearly an overuse pattern for families like Lamiaceae, Rosaceae and Euphorbiaceae and an underuse pattern for Poaceae and Orchidaceae
