The anuran amphibians are one of the most actively vocalizing animal groups. Acoustic characteristics of anurans are species-specific and can be used for their identification, description of new species, understanding phylogenetic relationships among species, resolving cryptic speciation and in the conservation of species.

Abstract


The anuran amphibians are one of the most actively vocalizing animal groups. Acoustic characteristics of anurans are species-specific and can be used for their identification, description of new species, understanding phylogenetic relationships among species, resolving cryptic speciation and in the conservation of species.
