雄性沼泽麻雀(Melospiza Georgiana)和歌雀(M.melodia)在相同条件下饲养雄性沼泽麻雀(Melospiza Georgiana)和歌雀(M.melodia)，在与成虫同种鸣叫完全隔离的条件下，鉴定了它们在鸣叫行为上的先天差异。隔离饲养的两个物种的雄性都表现出几个异常的歌唱特征，包括每首歌的音符数量减少，音符持续时间和音符间隔更长，每个音节的音符更少。尽管出现了这些和其他异常情况，但出现了许多物种差异，这些差异与两种蜘蛛自然鸣叫行为的差异相匹配。其中包括歌曲曲目大小、歌曲持续时间和分割程度、每首歌的音符数量、音符持续时间和音符间间隔的差异，以及反映歌曲组织为音符复合体、音节和颤音的几个指标。虽然学习可以影响沼泽和歌雀歌唱运动模式的各个层次的组织，但它对实现正常歌唱行为的贡献似乎在构成歌曲的音符和音节的精细结构水平上最为关键。
Innate differences in the singing behavior of male swamp (Melospiza georgiana) and song (M. melodia) sparrows were identified by rearing males from the egg in the laboratory under identical conditions, in complete isolation from adult conspecific song. Isolation-reared males of both species displayed several abnormal song features, including reduced numbers of notes per song, longer durations of notes and inter-note intervals, and fewer notes per syllable. Despite these and other abnormalities, many species differences emerged that matched differences in the natural singing behavior of the 2 spp. These included differences in song repertoire size, song duration and degrees of segmentation, numbers of notes per song, durations of notes and inter-note intervals, and several measures reflecting the organization of songs into note complexes, syllables and trills. Although learning can influence all levels of organization of the motor patterns of song in swamp and song sparrows, its contribution to the achievement of normal song behavior appears to be most crucial at the level of the fine structure of the notes and syllables from which the songs are constructed.
