In this study, we played synthetic song that varies in pulse length and carrier frequency to individual females in the laboratory, both alone and in the presence of mute males.
The presence of mute males significantly increased their overall responsiveness, but the relative effectiveness of the songs did not change, eliminating male reaction to song as a possible confounding factor in the results.
Left is song from a real male, right are examples of synthetic songs used in playback experiments (top has a short pulse length and high carrier frequency, middle has medium pulse length and carrier frequency, bottom has long pulse length and low carrier frequency).

 Variation in male song traits in D. montana
Variation in male song traits was studied in Kemi and Oulanka populations in paper III.
The amount of additive variation (measured as a coefficient of additive variation) was at the same level, or even higher, in pulse characters as in pulse train characters, which gives support to Houle’s (1992) suggestion of a higher level of additive variation in fitness than in non-fitness traits.
Differences between the songs of the males from the Kemi and Oulanka populations are most evident in pulse train characters, which may be more important in species’ recognition than in sexual selection.

 Repeatability of male song traits in D. montana and D. littoralis
, song characters that play a part in sexual selection in the wild (pulse characters) are more condition dependent than the song characters, which are not direct targets of female choice (pulse train characters).
During the cold-treatment, however, the additive variation increased significantly in nearly all song traits, so that this increase was most pronounced in traits found to be the targets of sexual selection (PL, CN and FRE).
If genotype environment-interactions increase phenotypic variation between males in sexually selected song traits prior to the mating season of the flies, male songs may reflect viability and condition of the males at the moment of courtship.
