title: TABLE 1 in Vocalizations of three species of Plectrohyla (Hylidae: Hylinae), with comments on natural history

description: TABLE 1. Acoustic parameters (call duration, number of pulses, pulse rate, minimum frequency, maximum frequency, and dominant frequency) of the vocalizations of species of Exerodonta, Plectrohyla, and Sarcohyla species with formal advertisement call descriptions: Exerodonta bivocata, E. melanomma, E. sumichrasti, P. avia, P. catracha, P. insolita, P. ixil, S. cyclada, S. hapsa, S. hazelae, S. thorectes, and S. toyota. Call vouchers correspond to Fonoteca Zoologica (FZ). Values reported as fundamental frequency in the literature have been included under the minimum frequency category. N/A indicates recordings not available in public repositories, while N/P denotes information not provided in the literature. Number of pulses and pulse rate values are reported only for species with fully pulsed calls; species with partially pulsed or non-pulsed call structures were excluded only from these two columns.
