“…A. tenuirostris and A. grisea respond to fish oil and ammonia, but the abstract cited to support the claim that these species respond to DMS states, “responses to dimethyl sulphide and pyrazene were much less robust” ( 8 ), and gives no details on statistical analyses or results. Savoca et al ( 1 ) also included among the non–DMS-responders several species that respond to other odors linked to foraging, but those, as far as we are aware, have not been tested for DMS [ Macronectes giganteus , Macronectes halli , Pelecanoides magellani , Pelecanoides georgicus , Pagodroma nivea , and Thalassoica antarctica ( 5 , 7 , 8 , 11 , 12 )]. The reclassification of all these species is likely to change the model results, including the statistical significance of some of the factors being tested.…”
