There are extensive studies on frog calling behaviours, including the effects of environmental variables, however, there are no known studies to explore the specific proximate cues that stimulate the onset of calling in an individual on a given night. The aim of this study is to identify and quantify the species-specific set of environmental variab...

Context 1
... model for D. microcephalus included only the effects of ambient light on first call. The model for S. boulengeri included ambient light levels, number of days to full moon, total precipitation (mm) in the preceding 48 h and tended to be affected by number of consecutive days with rain (table 2). ...
Context 2
... logistic model of D. diastema included ambient light, days to full moon, and relative humidity (table 2). Ambient light was a significant predictor of calling onset in this species and relative humidity was not a significant predictor. ...
