摘要

A recent study demonstrated that marmoset “phee calls” include information specific to the intended receiver of the call, and that receivers respond more to calls that are specifically directed at them. The authors interpret this as showing that these calls are name-like vocal labels for individual marmosets, but there is at least one other possibility that would equally explain these data.
