We show that male tree frogs reduce their attractiveness to eavesdropping enemies (bats and midges) by overlapping their calls at near-perfect synchrony with the calls of neighboring conspecifics taking advantage of an auditory illusion.

We investigated how the different call types of a Japanese stream breeding treefrog are affected by automobile traffic noise. This noise affected signal types in different ways suggesting some social functions will be disrupted more than others.

Complex color patterns can decrease capture of moving prey (motion dazzle effect). We found no support for the motion dazzle effect as striped crickets did not fare better than solid colored ones crickets that moved more were more likely to be eaten.

We examined wild populations of cane toads near sugarcane fields in Florida and found evidence of demasculinization in both primary and secondary sexual traits in male toads. Males from sugarcane areas have reduced larynges than toads from the city.

We examined call timing strategies of the Ryukyu Kajika frog showing variation in temporal signaling strategies within a species with a call type that is synchronized with neighbors and another one that is produced alternating.
