The robust nature of vocal communication in frogs has long attracted the attention of natural philosophers and their biologically inclined successors. Each frog species produces distinctive calls that facilitate pre-mating reproductive isolation and thus speciation.

Vocalic communication in persuasion
Quarterly Journal of Speech, 1972Previous studies demonstrated that credibility is inferred from vocalic communication. These studies, however, may not be generalizable and have not shown vocal cues to affect persuasion. The present study utilized recordings of a speech delivered by the same speaker in two styles (conversational and dynamic).

Cetacean vocal learning and communication
Current Opinion in Neurobiology, 2014The cetaceans are one of the few mammalian clades capable of vocal production learning. Evidence for this comes from synchronous changes in song patterns of baleen whales and experimental work on toothed whales in captivity. While baleen whales like many vocal learners use this skill in song displays that are involved in sexual selection, toothed ...

Vocal communication and the triune brain
Physiology & Behavior, 2003This paper tests the 'fit' between Paul MacLean's triune brain scheme of brain organization and existing knowledge about the pathways mediating vocal communication in mammals. One component of MacLean's limbic system ('paleomammalian brain'), the 'thalamocingulate circuit,' is found to have an important role in expression of vocalizations, particularly

This book will be a landmark text for all those interested in animal communication. Animal Vocal Communication explicitly avoids human-centred concepts and approaches and links communication to fundamental biological processes instead. It offers a conceptual framework - assessment/management - that allows us to integrate detailed studies of ...

The vocal communication of canines
Journal of Veterinary Behavior, 2007Abstract Canine vocalizations can be divided into several types and these types of vocalizations can carry the senders' emotional state to receivers such as other dogs and humans. When humans send a signal consisting of short notes, it can elicit a reactive response and increase motor activity levels more so than a signal consisting of a longer ...

Recently it was discovered that freshwater turtles communicate underwater by sound. The vocal repertoire of the Western Australian longneck turtle Chelodina colliei includes complex and percussive calls which are harmonically structured and frequency modulated, with dominant frequencies below 1 kHz and a range from around 100 to 3.5 kHz.

Vocal Communication in Primates
1978The living primates are social mammals that exhibit a variety of complex and subtle behavior patterns employing intricate communication systems. These patterns are expressions that have evolved during the long phylogenetic history of the various primate groups.

A vocal communication snorkel includes a hollow body having a breather tube, adapted to extend above the water, coupled thereto and a mouthpiece adapted to be held by the lips of a snorkeler. The body has a pair of inwardly curved, spherically shaped diaphragms of thin plastic material that are tuned to resonance within the frequency band of 1500 to ...

How do animals communicate using sounds? How did animal vocal communication arise and evolve? Exploring a new way to conceptualize animal communication, this new edition moves beyond an earlier emphasis on the role of senders in managing receiver behaviour, to examine how receivers' responses influence signalling.
