abstract = {{Species interactions that vary across environments can create geographical mosaics of geneticcoevolution. However, traits mediating species interactions are sometimes culturally inherited. Here weshow that traditions of interspecies communication between people and wild birds vary in a culturallydetermined geographical mosaic. Honey hunters in different parts of Africa use different calls tocommunicate with greater honeyguides (Indicator indicator) that lead them to bees{\textquoteright}nests. We showexperimentally that honeyguides in Tanzania and Mozambique discriminate among honey hunters{\textquoteright}calls,responding more readily to local than to foreign calls. This was not explained by variation in soundtransmission and instead suggests that honeyguides learn local human signals. We discuss the forcesstabilizing and diversifying interspecies communication traditions, and the potential for culturalcoevolution between species.}},
