Hearing and Sound Communication in Chinese Concave-Eared Frog
2019, SC., 145 pages, numerous illustrations. The concave-eared torrent frog (Odorrana tormota) is the first frog (and the first non-mammalian vertebrate) demonstrated to both produce and perceive ultrasonic frequencies. These frogs’ preferred habitat is adjacent to rapidly moving water which produces perpetual low-frequency background noise. Thus, the use of high-frequency calls is believed to facilitate intraspecific communication within the frogs’ noisy environment. (Wikipedia) In Chinese with Latin scientific names.
