Adaptive Sleep Loss in Polygynous Pectoral Sandpipers
Abstract
You Snooze, You Lose: Sleep serves restorative and memory functions, but it does not always operate analogously across species. Deferral of sleep may be possible when selection strongly favors the awake. Lesku et al. (p. 1654 ; see the Perspective by Siegel ) show that sleep may be deferred without cost or impairment in pectoral sandpipers. These birds breed collectively in the high Arctic, and male competition is intense. Competing for, and displaying to, females are both physically and cognitively demanding, yet birds who slept the least showed no decrease in their ability to perform these activities. Indeed, those males who slept the least obtained the most matings and sired the most offspring.

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.
