title: Data for: Ecology and behavior predict an evolutionary trade-off between song complexity and elaborate plumages in antwrens (Aves, Thamnophilidae)

description: The environment can impose constraints on signal transmission properties
 such that signals should evolve in predictable directions (Sensory Drive
 Hypothesis). However, behavioral and ecological factors can limit
 investment in more than one sensory modality leading to a trade-off in use
 of different signals (Transfer Hypothesis). In birds, there is mixed
 evidence for both sensory drive and transfer hypothesis. Few studies have
 tested sensory drive while also evaluating the transfer hypothesis,
 limiting understanding of the relative roles of these processes in signal
 evolution. Here, we assessed both hypotheses using acoustic and visual
 signals in male and female antwrens (Thamnophilidae), a species-rich group
 that inhabits diverse environments and exhibits behaviors, such as
 mixed-species flocking, that could limit investment in different signal
 modalities. We uncovered significant effects of habitat (sensory drive)
 and mixed-species flocking behavior on both sensory modalities, and we
 revealed evolutionary trade-offs between song and plumage complexity,
 consistent with the transfer hypothesis. We also showed sex- and
 trait-specific responses in visual signals that suggest both natural and
 social selection play an important role in the evolution of sexual
 dimorphism. Altogether, these results support the idea that environmental
 (sensory drive) and behavioral pressures (social selection) shape signal
 evolution in antwrens.

The following files have a correction in the name of one vocal variable: <strong><i>Form_vocal_mean_f_ok.csv</i></strong>;<strong><i> Form_vocal_mean_m_ok.csv</i></strong>; <strong><i>Form_total_female_ok.csv</i></strong>; <strong><i>Form_total_male_ok.csv</i></strong>; <strong><i>Form_total_ok.csv</i></strong>. Frequency slope variable was changed to Loudsong modulation rate, a term that better represents the obtained vocal measure.
