Single unit recordings have provided us with a basis for understanding the auditory system,
especially about how it behaves under stimulation with simple sounds such as clicks and …

Twenty four castrated male, 6 intact male, and 11 intact female Hyla cinerea were injected
subcutaneously with 25 μg arginine-vasotocin (AVT) and induced to call 1 h later in …

Amplitude modulation is a predominant temporal feature in many vocal signals. The leopard
frog, Rana pipiens, has a class of neurons in the central auditory system that respond …

A single and multiunit survey was made of the tuning properties of auditory neurons in the
rostral midbrain and caudal thalamus of the northern leopard frog, Rana p. pipiens. Lesions …

Recordings were made from single units in the torus semicircularis of Bufo americanus and
Bufo fowleri. Using sinusoidally amplitude-modulated (AM) white noise as a stimulus, the …

4. Synthetic call notes were presented in noise of various bandwidths but of constant total
power. The'effective critical band'(ECB) at 1 kHz for E. coqui in its natural habitat was …

The majority of anuran amphibians (frogs and toads) use acoustic communication to
mediate sexual behavior and reproduction. Generally, females find and select their mates …
