  • Songs of the Yellow-throated Bunting (Emberiza elegans) and the Gray-headed Bunting (Emberiza fucata) in allopatric populations in Gangnae-meon, Cheongwon-gun, Chungbuk in Korea, were recorded during the breeding season and analyzed in sound spectroraphs. Males of E. elegans and E. fucata were tested to investigate whether territorial males can discriminate between neighbor and stranger based on playback of natural and artificial song repertoires. In addition, E. fucata was stimulated by playback of only the individually specific section as well as of only the posterior portion of the song. Males of E. elegans were able to discriminate individually between neighbor and stranger in response to natural song repertoires, but they did not respond to playback of the artificial song repertoires of neighbor and stranger. Males of E. fucata were able to discriminate individually between neighbor and stranger in response to natural, artificial song repertoires, and the anterior section of the song, while males did not respond to playback of the posterior section of the song.
