the first evidence that new neurons can be created in the brains of adult vertebrates came in the 1980s from the study of:
hamsters
songbirds
the amygdala
the hippocampus
the olfactory bulbs

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

In the 1980s, studies on songbirds provided the first evidence of neurogenesis (creation of new neurons) in the brains of adult vertebrates. Songbirds show seasonal changes in their song - control regions of the brain, which involve the addition of new neurons. Hamsters were not the first subjects for this discovery. The amygdala, hippocampus, and olfactory bulbs are brain structures, but the initial evidence from the 1980s came from the study of a whole organism (songbirds) rather than just these specific brain regions.

Answer:

songbirds
