Torrent sigmaplot 116/1/2023 ![]() To determine whether stream noise can act as a cue regarding the microhabitat characteristics of senders, we performed phonotaxis experiments using stimulus pairs constructed with synthetic male calls (high or low dominant frequency) and stream noise with varied signal-to-noise ratios. Here we identified an exception to this generalization in a streamside species, the little torrent frog ( Amolops torrentis) which communicates in a stream noise environment. ![]() Many kinds of environmental noise can interfere with acoustic communication and efficient decision making in terrestrial species.
