Response of male bluethroats Luscinia svecica to song playback: evidence of territorial function of song and song flights / Jorma Sorjonen, Juha Merilä.
Title: | Response of male bluethroats Luscinia svecica to song playback: evidence of territorial function of song and song flights / Jorma Sorjonen, Juha Merilä. |
Author(s): | Sorjonen, Jorma. Merilä, Juha. |
Date: | 2000. |
In: | Ornis Fennica. (2000.), Vol. 77(1) (2000) |
Abstract: | Complex song is often delivered in flights. Earlier studies, based on timing, indicated that song is to attract mates. Playbacks in territories of 26 males showed considerable increase in activity when there were no females there. Mated males remained quiet, guarding mates. Results suggest that song is used pre-mating to improve mating success. |
Notes: | Ornis Fennica. Vol. 77(1) :43-47 (2000). |
Keywords: | 591.551 -- Animals, breeding behaviour. 598.8 -- Passeriformes: Luscinia svecica. H5 -- Zoology: birds. (*3) -- Arctic regions. (*561) -- Finnish Lapland. |
