Sexual imprinting leads to speciation in locally adapted populations
Abstract Sexual imprinting is widespread in birds and other species but its existence requires explanation. Our results suggest that sexual imprinting leads to speciation in locally‐adapted populations if a neutral mating cue—e.g., novel plumage coloration—arises through mutation. Importantly, the m...
