Naomi Langmore

Naomi Langmore is a Fellow at The Australian National University's Research School of Biology. Her research focuses on behavioural and evolutionary ecology, with an emphasis on breeding systems, brood parasitism, signal evolution, and communication. Current projects include the coevolution between cuckoos and their hosts, the impact of climate change on inter-specific interactions, and the evolution of bird song. She is also investigating the effects of extreme climatic events on breeding biology. Langmore's work has been supported by multiple Australian Research Council grants and has contributed to significant findings in avian evolutionary and behavioural ecology.

Naomi E. Langmore is an Australian Research Fellow at the Australian National University, specializing in Evolutionary Ecology. Her research explores the complexities of avian communication, brood parasitism, and coevolutionary dynamics between parasites and hosts. She investigates the functions of female bird songs, the evolution of egg rejection mechanisms in cuckoo hosts, and the role of cooperative breeding in avian societies. Her work also examines the evolutionary implications of mimicry, host-specific adaptations, and the behavioral strategies of both parasitic and host species. Langmore's studies contribute to understanding the interplay between ecological pressures and evolutionary responses in birds.
