ABSTRACT The Acoustic Adaptation Hypothesis (AAH) posits that animal acoustic signals
used in long-range communication should be adapted to transmit well within the habitats in …

The transmission and reception of sound, both between conspecifics and among individuals
of different species, play a crucial role in individual fitness, because correct interpretation of …

Long‐distance acoustic signals are widely used in animal communication systems and, in
many cases, are essential for reproduction. The acoustic adaptation hypothesis (AAH) …

Biological invasions are a major threat to biodiversity. Invasive species that use acoustic
communication can affect native species through interference in the acoustic niche. The …

Invasive species can disrupt the communication systems that native biota use for
reproductive interactions. In tropical Australia, invasive cane toads (Rhinella marina) breed …

Leptodactylus fragilis is a recently introduced frog in Cuba, where it may impact local
populations of amphibians in different ways. Here, we combined two methods to predict the …

Biotic and abiotic factors have been proposed to explain patterns of reproductive character
displacement, but which factor is most important to character displacement of acoustic …

ABSTRACT The Acoustic Adaptation Hypothesis indicates that vocalisations will have
acoustic characteristics that maximise their transmission within the habitat where they are …

Despite acoustic signals playing a fundamental role on animal behavior and reproduction,
our understanding of the mechanisms driving their evolution is still scarce. Due to the high …

In anurans, vocalization is the primary communication form and acoustic parameters are
influenced by climatic conditions, but also by social contexts. We investigated calling site …
