Abstract:

Calls are a critical mode of interspecific and intraspecific interactions in anurans. Analyzing their call characteristics is fundamental for bioacoustics research, species behavior studies, and biodiversity monitoring. It is vital for understanding species identification, reproduction, distribution and evolutionary processes. In June, 2024, we collected call data from 11 anuran species (belonging to 6 families and 8 genera) in the Chebaling National Nature Reserve and nearby areas in Guangdong Province. The dataset includes call characteristics for these species, featuring oscillograms and spectrograms data from 11 advertisement calls and 1 fighting call. The dataset encompasses both temporal and spectral parameters, including simple calls, complex calls, call duration, note duration, note interval, number of pulses, dominant frequency, and fundamental frequency. This resource provides essential data for bioacoustic research and species monitoring of anurans in South China.
