Sexual monomorphism in the advertisement calls of a Neotropical frog
(Oxford University Press, 2018)
In anurans, production of advertisement calls in sexual contexts is predominantly an attribute of males. Female calls occur in a small proportion of species, and these signals typically differ from those of males. The ...
Acoustic variability among male gladiator frogs, Boana goiana (Lutz, 1968) (Anura: Hylidae): an 18-year analysis across several reproductive seasons
(Brill, 2021-01-01)
Male anurans emit different call types in specific social contexts. Such calls represent a communication pathway for species recognition, mate choice, and male-male competition mediation. The acoustic parameters of these ...
A new species of Scinax Wagler (Anura: Hylidae) from Parana, Southern Brazil
(Magnolia Press, 2016-11-16)
In this article, we describe a new species of Scinax from the state of Parana, southern Brazil, based on the external morphology of adults and their advertisement calls. The new species is diagnosed by the size of its males ...
A new species of Physalaemus (Amphibia; Leptodactylidae) from the Atlantic forest in southeastern Brazil
(Magnolia Press, 2004-03-31)
A new species of leptodactylid frog, Physalaemus atlanticus, is described from Ubatuba, northern coast of São Paulo in southeastern Brazil. The new species belongs to the Physalaemus signifer species group and is characterized ...

A comparative acoustic analysis of species of Vitreorana (Anura: Centrolenidae) from the Brazilian Atlantic Forest and Cerrado, with a description of the call of V. baliomma and insights into the taxonomic status of Cerrado populations
(Univ Sao Paulo, Esalq, 2020-06-01)
Advertisement calls are the primary signaling strategy of mating in most anurans. Examining major patterns within and across frog taxa may help to delimit species and understand acoustic communication systems. Herein, the ...
