“…Incubation behaviour, especially in the Amazon breeding range of black skimmers, is poorly studied (Vieira et al., 2018b ). Generally, females were found to incubate more than males (Quinn, 1990 ; Schuchmann et al., 2022 ), but one study from a North American population found higher male incubation rates (Burger, 1981b ). However, the limited observation time in these studies, mainly constrained to daylight hours, means we know very little about the incubation behaviour across the entire diel cycle, especially nocturnal time allocation to incubation (Vieira et al., 2018b ), which might conflict with foraging requirements (Bulla et al., 2015 ; Erwin, 1977 ).…”
