Northern rockhopper penguin two genera, "Austrogoniodes" and the monotypic "Nesiotinus". Within rockhopper penguins, the host-specific louse "Austrogoniodes keleri" is present only on southern rockhoppers; the multi-host "Austrogoniodes concii" parasitises only northern rockhoppers and "Austrogoniodes hamiltoni" parasitises only eastern rockhoppers. Cross contamination of the lice is not possible naturally due to the fact that chewing lice have limited mobility and heavily rely on their host for survival, meaning that the lice can only be transmitted across species by way of close physical contact. The northern rockhopper penguin feeds on krill and other sea life such as crustaceans, squid, octopus and fish. It breeds in
Bird vocalization and prevent an energetically costly fight . In birds with song repertoires, individuals may share the same song type and use these song types for more complex communication. Some birds will respond to a shared song type with a song-type match (i.e. with the same song type). This may be an aggressive signal, however results are mixed. Birds may also interact using repertoire-matches, wherein a bird responds with a song type that is in its rival's repertoire but is not the song that it is currently singing. This may be a less aggressive act than song-type matching. Communication through bird
