  1. Note that three of the five L. yerbabuenae did not have speed and altitude data and were therefore excluded from analyses that included these parameters (GLM models and sensory volume figures).
  2. aNumber of calls represents the number of analyzed calls (calls during commute flight with IPI > 0.05)
