Replication Data for: Fig 16.9, BTPDs, MC vs stage of mating season, 30 May 2025

Also, I find the data to verify that data in current and 1988 files are both correct. MC = Mating Call MC or NO MC = 0 = Male did NOT give MC MC or NO MC = 1 = Male DID give MC Percentage of BTPD females that elicited >=1 MC during 1st third of mating season = 110/110+90 = 110/200 = 55% Percentage of BTPD females that DID NOT ELICIT >=1 MC during 1st third of mating season = 90/110+90 = 90/200 = 45% Percentage of BTPD females that elicited >=1 MC during 2ND third of mating season = 113/113+ 80 = 113/193 = 58.5% Percentage of BTPD females that DID NOT ELICIT >=1 MC during 2nd third of mating season = 80/110+90 = 80/193 = 41.5% Percentage of BTPD females that elicited >=1 MC during 3rd third of mating season = 85/85+64 = 85/149 = 57.0% Percentage of BTPD females that DID NOT ELICIT >=1 MC during 2nd third of mating season = 64/85+64 = 64/149 = 43.0% For these data, P = 0.776 for 3x2 chi-square test from Hoogland 1995 (my first book), page 245 All pairwise comparisons were also significant (> > 0.400 for all three, 3x2 chi-square test).

For stage of the mating season, I divided each mating season into three thirds. Each third contained approximately one third of all the females that mated each year. Thirds are based on NUMBER OF FEMALES rather than date of year.
