Stabilizing and directional preferences of female Hyla ebraccata for calls differing in static properties

Female frogs of many species show preferences for calls with particular properties. This study focuses on female preferences in Hyla ebraccata for computer-synthesized calls that differ in pulse-repetition rate or dominant frequency. Both of these call properties are static acoustic properties of ad...

Zusammenfassung:Female frogs of many species show preferences for calls with particular properties. This study focuses on female preferences in Hyla ebraccata for computer-synthesized calls that differ in pulse-repetition rate or dominant frequency. Both of these call properties are static acoustic properties of advertisement calls of H. ebraccata (within-male coefficient of variation
