The Sounds of the Australian Summer: A Continental‐Scale Inventory of Cicada Ecoacoustics
ABSTRACT Australia has a rich cicada fauna, with over 400 described species including some of the loudest‐calling species in the world. The males of each species produce a unique call for attracting females; these calls are invaluable for informing taxonomy and allowing for species‐level identification.
