Figure 1 Disparate taxa show proto compositional syntax. Playback experiments confirm the essence of compositional syntax is used by primates and unrelated birds in their communication systems: left, Campbell’s monkey (credit Erin Kane); middle, southern pied babbler (credit Dave Humphries); and right, Japanese tit (credit Toshitaka Suzuki).
