behaviour · bio.acousti.ca
(2 males recorded) Two specimens were recorded, both at 23°C, both showing remarkable constancy in note interval. For one male (96-1), based on a sample of 24 successive calls from a longer sequence, the average call interval was 2.95 s with a coefficient of variation (ev) of only 2.4%. Each call of this male averaged 22 ms in duration. For the second male (96-2) mean call interval (n=19 successive calls) was 3.0 s (cv 2.7%). Each call (n=10) of 96-2 averaged 18.8 ms in duration. Each call is one note: a single sustained pulse of about 20 ms duration (Fig. 35A), its waveform indicating one puretone frequency (Fig. 35B), its musicality readily apparent to the human ear if slowed on a tape recorder. In real time one hears an instantaneous 'pop'. But with tape speed reduced by a factor of 8, this signal ressembles the call of a common north american frog, the spring peeper. The number of teeth on the file (96-1), 253 in a length of 2 mm, falls well short of the number of waves, about 400, observed in the uniform amplitude portion of the pulse. So it is impossible for the pulse to be generated on a single tooth per wave basis. Successive tooth-scraper mechanical interactions must maintain an exact phase to the ongoing resonant system to give rise to such a flat amplitude envelope. The principal peak was the same for both recorded males: high-Qat 22.5 kHz (Fig. 35C). Second and third harmonics of this occur but both are >20 dB below the fundamental. There is a slight 600 Hz frequency modulation (FM) during the pulse. The principal peak begins at 23.1, drops to 22.5 by mid-pulse and then returns to above 23 again.

Every value behind the summaries above. Each links to its own record in the API, which carries the reference it was taken from.
Counts are recordings at or below each taxon, so an empty branch shows as empty before you click it. A dash means the join view holds no column for that rank and cannot roll up to it.
