Golden-collared Manakin

It is found in Colombia, Costa Rica, and Panama. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests and heavily degraded former forest.

The Golden-collared Manakin is classified as Least Concern. Does not qualify for a more at risk category. Widespread and abundant taxa are included in this category.

in golden-collared manakins and find that the golden patches show greater chromatic and brightness contrasts, and they show lower variability in chromatic and brightness contrasts when viewed against cleared courts than when viewed against natural litter. In addition, the overall contrast of objects in the leaf litter is greater than the overall contrast of the cleared court; hence, court-clearing creates a visual background with lower overall brightness and chromatic contrasts.

golden-collared manakins, Manacus vitellinus, and related this to spectral measures of their colorful plumage, as well as other morphological and behavioral traits shown to be important in other lekking species. We found that lek centrality, male body size, and plumage brightness were associated with male mating success. Only plumage brightness, however, entered a multiple regression model, indicating that plumage is the overall best predictor of mating success. More

Golden-collared manakins in the forest of Panama with a high-speed camera that allows a time resolution 5-40 times higher than that of a standard video camera. We found that several elements of the displays differed significantly between individuals. In addition, the slow-motion analysis revealed the features of the displays that had not been described in previous studies. More

counterparts, the Orange-collared and Golden-collared Manakins, have heavily modified wings with the five outer primaries very narrow for their outer half, and the inner primaries thickened and bowed.

display is the golden-collared manakin (Manacus vitellinus) of Panamanian forests. Adult males, but not females, perform a physically intense display requiring substantial neuromuscular control of the wings and legs. We tested the hypothesis that steroid sensitivity is a property of neurons in the manakin spinal cord. Males and females were captured from active courtship leks, treated with drugs to block steroidogenesis, injected with 3H-labeled testosterone, and the spinal cords were removed and processed for autoradiography.
