The significance of particular acoustic properties of advertisement calls for selective
phonotaxis by the gray treefrog, Hyla versicolor (= HV), was studied behaviorally and …

An extensive series of two-speaker and four-speaker playback experiments using synthetic
advertisement calls identified acoustic criteria that may be used by females of the green …

The selectivity of female phonotactic responses to synthetic advertisement calls was tested
in choice situations. Preferences based on differences in the linear rise-time of synthetic …

We studied the relationship between auditory activity in the midbrain and selective
phonotaxis in females of the treefrog, Pseudacris crucifer. Gravid females were tested in two …

During the reproductive season, male Hyla versicolor produce advertisement calls to attract
females. Females exhibit phonotaxis and approach the individual callers, resulting in …

The two main spectral components of the advertisement calls of two species of North
American gray treefrogs (Hyla chrysoscelis and H. versicolor) overlap broadly in frequency …

The bullfrog, Rana catesbeiana, is a predator of the gray treefrog, Hyla versicolor. Recent
research with a variety of taxa has demonstrated that females may be sensitive to changes …

We investigated the effects of overlap between the advertisement calls of two closely related
and often-sympatric species of grey treefrogs on female phonotactic behaviour and signal …

The influence of call amplitude on phonotaxis in female Hyla versicolor was studied using a
no-choice paradigm. One set of experiments estimated effects of stimulus amplitude on …

Previous phonotaxis studies with two species of the Physalaemuspustulosus species group
indicated that female preferences for several heterospecific call traits resulted from sensory …
