"The divergence of songs in the new population away from those in the progenitor population would only be prevented if these processes were balanced by repeated immigration and subsequent breeding: song flow."

"I had found again and again that the most aberrant population of a species - often having reached species rank, and occasionally classified even as a separate genus - occurred at a peripheral location, indeed usually at the most isolated peripheral location."

"Islands are known to differ in the food supply available to ground finches, mainly seeds."

"Thus mating of females was strictly along the lines of paternal song."
Music

"The independent role of morphology in mate choice is revealed by the rare instances where the usual association between song and morphology is disrupted."
Choice

"To summarize, the particular song a male sings, and the behavioral responses of females to song and morphological signals, are not genetically inherited in a fixed manner but are determined by learning early in life."
Life

"Almost nothing is known from hybridization studies about the inheritance of courtship behavior of females, or of their responsiveness to particular male signals."
Behavior

"Genes that underlie the capacity to receive, use and transmit information are the evolving properties."
Information

"Plumage features constitute a major component of courtship signals."
Courtship

"Males transmit signals in courtship through behavioral displays."
Courtship

"Closely related species of birds are also chromosomally similar."

"The theory of founder effects does not explain how novel features like plumage traits arise."
