基于（亚）物种识别的分类社会互动可以成为物种形成过程的驱动力。为了确定在以色列繁殖的仓燕（Hirundo rustica transitiva）是否与不同的过渡性亚种H. r. rustica和两个同属繁殖物种（沙马丁Riparia Riparia和家雀Passer domesticus）相比，对自己亚种的成员表现不同，我们在活动巢穴附近进行了一项领地入侵实验，使用动物标本模型。雌性对模型的反应低于雄性，记录的行为反应特征模式与模型的亚种或物种身份有统计学上的共变，但没有显示出仅对非（亚）特定模型类型的反应选择性模式。这些结果不支持亚种识别在过渡夜蛾领土入侵反应中的作用。
Assortative social interactions based on (sub)species recognition can be a driving force in speciation processes. To determine whether breeding Barn Swallows Hirundo rustica transitiva in Israel behave differentially towards members of their own subspecies, relative to a different, transient subspecies H. r. rustica and two sympatrically breeding species (Sand Martin Riparia riparia and House Sparrow Passer domesticus), we conducted a territory intrusion experiment near active nests using taxidermy models. Females responded less to the models than males, and the patterns of the recorded behavioral response traits co-varied statistically with sub- or species identity of the models, but none showed patterns of response selectivity for con(sub)specific model types only. These results do not support a role for subspecies recognition in the territorial intrusion responses of H. r. transitiva.
