Amphibian Chytrid Fungus Infection Influences Calling Investment in Male Brown Toadlets. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
The sublethal effects of infection and disease on male advertisement behaviour remain poorly understood. Here we show that male brown toadlets infected with the amphibian chytrid fungus produce calls with more pulses compared to uninfected males. The association we report supports the terminal investment hypothesis and has the potential to impact host ...

Allometric Constraint Predominates Over the Acoustic Adaptation Hypothesis in a Radiation of Neotropical Treefrogs. [PDF]

open access: yesIntegr Zool
Male frogs emit calls to attract mates and deter conspecific rivals. The evolution of these calls is thought to be linked to anatomical constraints and the acoustic characteristics of their surroundings. We tested these two factors in a radiation of 112 species of Neotropical treefrogs and found that body size and calling site affect peak frequency but
