Abstract
91 The advertisement call of the leptodactylid frog Leptodactylus griseigularis W. Ronald Heyer1, Victor R. Morales2 1 Department of Vertebrate Zoology, National Museum of Natural History, NHB stop 162, Smithsonian Institution, Washington, DC 20560, USA 2 Departamento de Biologia, Universidad de Puerto Rico, P.O. Box 5000, Mayagüez, Puerto Rico 00681-5000 1 . Adenomera griseigularis Henle, 1981 has recently been recognized as a valid species of Leptodactylus (Heyer, 1994). The advertisement call of L. griseigularis was thought to be unrecorded (Heyer, 1994), but VRM had made a recording of the species, identified at the time of recording as Leptodactylus sp. 'The purpose of this note is to describe and figure the advertisement call of Leptodactylus griseigularis and compare the call with those of other closely related species of Leptodactylus. The recording was made by VRM on I April 1985 from Tingo Maria, Hudnuco, Peru at 1930 hours, 24°C air temperature, voucher specimen Museo de Historia Natural, Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos 0236. The species was calling in drainage ditches without vegetation around the Universidad Nacional Agraria de la Selva campus. Advertisement calls (n = 12, fig. 1) are given at an average rate of 1.8 call per second.
