The vocalizations and breeding behaviour of kassina senegalensis (anura, rhacophoridae) in summer breeding aggregations

Abstract

Two different call types are produced by male Kassina senegalensis (Dumeril and Bibron) in breeding aggregations. The most common of these is the mating call. A territorial call is also produced, and its production is dependent on the close proximity of other calling males. Mention is made of the ovipositional behaviour of this species.
