Abstract

Abstract Underwater Passive Acoustic Monitoring (UPAM) has been used infrequently to register subsurface vocal behaviour in anurans. This study describes the underwater advertisement call of Telmatobius rubigo based on recordings made with UPAM technique. Telmatobius rubigo call is a low-frequency trill composed of 6 to 22 pulses with amplitude modulation. The spectral and temporal characters showed differences from other Telmatobius species. The UPAM, combined with automated call identification software, showed effectiveness in monitoring the calling behaviour of this aquatic Andean frog in their natural environment. UPAM and soundscape/riverscape analysis should be incorporated as a non-invasive tool for monitoring threatened aquatic species.
