Cardiodactylus kotandora

Behaviour: 

Cardiodactylus kotandora has a mono-syllabic calling song. At 21°C, the calling songs are emitted in irregular groups of 1–9 (m = 4.2 ± 2.0, n = 3). Each syllable shows a very indented amplitude profile and has the following characteristics: syllable duration = 129.4 ± 14 ms; syllable period = 1.48 ± 0.33 s; syllable duty cycle = 8.7 %. The power spectrum shows a clear harmonic pattern of the end of the syllable, but the spectrum has a rather wide band; the dominant frequency is 13.6 ± 0.9 kHz and corresponds to the third frequency peak.
