Abstract: In biological oscillator communities the transmission of information between two oscillators needs a finite time τ. We investigate the influence of this effect on the mutual entrainment of two limit cycle oscillators with different frequencies by coupling them with a time delay τ. It is shown that for a finite delay time there exists a multitude of synchronized solutions in contrast to the situation without delay where one has at most one solution.
