Fig. 7. Distribution of criteria 1 and 2 for absolute photorefractoriness among
four species of cardueline finches. Criterion 1 indicates whether or not the
species spontaneously regresses gonads on constant long days [data are taken
from: 1(Hahn,
1995); 2(Hahn et
al., 2004); 3T.P.H., unpublished data (based on molt
and cloacal protuberance)]. Criterion 2 indicates whether or not the species
responds to very long days when putatively photorefractory (data from this
study). Phylogeny based on Marten and Johnson, and others
(Marten and Johnson, 1986;
Badyaev, 1997;
Arnaiz-Villena et al.,
2001).
