The role of learned song in the evolution and speciation of Eastern and Spotted towhees.
Oscine songbirds learn vocalizations that function in mate attraction and territory defense; sexual selection pressures on these learned songs could thus accelerate speciation. The Eastern and Spotted towhees are recently diverged sister species that now have partially overlapping ranges with eviden...
