Males of C. spilophora produce two types of calls, which they sometimes combine. Early in the evening (and sometimes during the day) the call is usually in the form of short, 2–2.6 s bursts of syllables at the rate of 9–10 syllables/s; mean syllable duration is 0.05413 s (SD=0.005331, n=38); the peak frequency of the call is 8.7–10.8 kHz (Figs. 57G–I). Later at night the call often turns into a long, uninterrupted train of single syllables, produced at the rate of 2–3 syllables/s, with each syllable 0.1511 s long (SD=0.01996, n=28) (Fig. 57J–L).
