Pant hoot chorusing and social bonds in male chimpanzees
Vocal interactions, such as call exchanges or chorusing, are common behaviours in many
animal species and their function has often been attributed to social bonding. However, few …

Anuran acoustic signal production in noisy environments
JJ Schwartz, MA Bee - Animal communication and noise, 2013 - Springer
Where they co-occur, male anurans of different species may signal from diverse locations
and use vocalizations that differ spectrally. However, the relevance of such differences to the …
