DESCRIPTION COMPLEMENT Stridulatory file:With 88 lamellar teeth; with usual “S” shape in the genus: 44 wide and widely spaced proximal teeth, 44 small and shortly spaced distal teeth ( Fig. 11A ). CALLING SONG ( FIG. 15B, C ) One male has been recorded and IR filmed in the field (SH-048, MNHN-ENSIF2200). At 28°C, the call of this species consists of irregular widely spaced (90 s) echemes.Individual echemes last 0.9- 1.6 s and consists of 12-17 syllables. Th e calling frequency first harmonic peaks in the ultrasound range ( c. 22 kHz; many Lebinthus sp. and Conocephalus sp. songs are covering the recording, preventing a more precise analysis).
