Abstract

Chiasmocleis currently comprises 25 species distributed from Panama through most of northern and central South America east of the Andes (Frost 2010). Santana et al. (2009) summarized available literature data on the advertisement call of the 12 species of Chiasmocleis with calls described and observed inter and intraspecific variation in the calls then available.
