Herein we describe a male-male fight of the tree frog Dendropsophus branneri, as well as the vocalizations emitted during this behavior (fighting call). Our observations also suggest an escalated aggressive behavior for the species. These behaviors are poorly reported in the diverse genus Dendropsophus and will aid in future studies on anuran aggressiveness.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
