The answer is behavioral isolation.

Reproductional isolation is a way to prevent closely related species to mate each other. This is due to reproductive barriers which can be either prezygotic (before fertilization) and postzygotic (after fertilization) barrier. Behavioral isolation is an example of postzygotic barrier. It is based on behavior, including mating sounds and rituals.
