Our latest article is out @jexpbiol.bsky.social ! doi.org/10.1242/jeb.... We show that tungara frogs adjust interaction modes to current collective chorusing dynamics based on how patterns of conspecific stimulation experienced between calls interact with their internal call rhythms

Our article was just published in Integrative & Comparative Biology! Here, we ponder how different interaction strategies lead to differences in call-timing mechanism functioning, and propose amendments to several prominent frameworks from the chorusing literature. academic.oup.com/icb/article-...

Internship opportunity to work with me (in collaboration with Drs. Matt Fuxjager and Rachel Page) next year to investigate links between physiological performance capacities and call properties in tungara frogs. Please share with those who might be interested! stri.si.edu/academic-pro...

A recent preprint from us. Tungara frogs use multifaceted cues to social context to guide adaptive flexibility in calling strategies. Cues involve conspecific stimulation patterns experienced between calls, and how these patterns interact with endogenous call rhythms. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
