We used DNA markers to determine the sexes of 449 breeding adult Black Terns (Chlidonias niger) captured and measured in southeastern Wisconsin from 2000 to 2005. Various morphometric discriminant functions were then generated to classify the sexes of these birds. Other objectives were to examine the effect of sample size on the predictive ability...
