Muñoz, Matías; Quispe, Maricel; Maliqueo, Manuel; Penna Varela, Mario (Elsevier, 2020)In animals, the expression of diverse reproductive behaviors is hormonally regulated. In particular, vocalizing during courtship has been related to circulating androgen levels, and reciprocally, conspecific vocalizations ...

Quiroga Hidalgo, Nicol; Muñoz, Matías I.; Pérez Espinoza, Samuel; Penna, Mario; Botto Mahan, Carezza (Taylor & Francis, 2020)Stridulation is a type of communication in which a mechanical signal is emitted by the friction of two rigid structures. Stridulation is present in kissing bugs (Reduviidae: Triatominae), where the friction of the proboscis ...

Vocal responses of austral forest frogs to amplitude and degradation patterns of advertisement calls Penna Varela, Mario; Moreno Gómez, Felipe N.; Muñoz, Matías I.; Cisternas, Javiera (Elsevier, 2017)Degradation phenomena affecting animal acoustic signals may provide cues to assess the distance of emitters. Recognition of degraded signals has been extensively demonstrated in birds, and recently studies have also reported ...
