Species
Least ConcernMountain chorus frogs generally only communicate with other individuals during the breeding season. Males use a call that is specific to their species in order to attract mates. The call has been described as distinct high-pitched chirps that are slightly shrill. The succession of their calls is rapid, occurring at a rate of 50 to 70 times a minute but lasts no more than 20 seconds. It is not known if P. brachyphona uses any other means of communication. Communication Channels: acoustic Other Communication Modes: choruses Perception Channels: visual ; tactile ; acoustic ; chemical
