Spatial memory in food-storing birds
Abstract
In the wild, several species of birds among the parids (tits and chickadees) and corvids store food in scattered locations and find it again days or months later. The food storers that have been tested use memory to recovery their stores in the laboratory. The importance of memory to a food-storing way of life suggests that these birds possess an adaptive specialization of some aspect or aspects of memory. Recent work has focused on analysing how memory is involved in recovering stored food, discovering how this memory can be tested in tasks that do not involve food storing, and comparing the memory of storing birds with that of their non-storing relatives in a variety of tasks.

If two traits are functionally linked and one trait changes, we expect selection for changes in the relevant cognitive trait.
“If two traits are functionally linked (e.g., food storing behavior and spatial memory; Shettleworth 1990) and one trait changes (e.g., increased dependence on stored food), we expect selection for changes in the relevant cognitive trait”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
