Extrapair paternity in chestnut-sided warblers is correlated with consistent vocal performance (2007, background): “In one of these approaches, behavioral responses of captive females are assayed for differential response to variation in broadcast, tape-recorded male songs (e.g., Riebel and Slater 1998; Nolan and Hill 2004; Hosoi et al. 2005).”
Experimental alteration of male song quality and output affects female mate choice and pair bond formation in zebra finches (2005, background): “…sparrows, Zonotrichia albicollis: Wasserman & Cigliano 1991; zebra finches: Collins et al. 1994; Collins 1995; house finches, Carpodacus mexicanus: Nolan & Hill 2004), have larger repertoire sizes (European starling, Sturnus vulgaris: Eens et al. 1991; Mountjoy & Lemon 1996; sedge warblers,…”
Birds in Urban Ecosystems: Population Dynamics, Community Structure, Biodiversity, and Conservation (2015, background): “, 2005), which could potentially decrease their mating opportunities because females are generally more attracted to males with longer songs (Nolan and Hill, 2004).”
