“…For example, the histrionicus group of Myers et al (1984) is delimited, in part, by a synapomorphic ''chirp'' call. Data are available for numerous species (for partial review, see Lö tters et al, 2003b), but their use in systematics has been predicated on their identification as a buzz (Myers and Daly, 1976b: 225), chirp (Myers and Daly, 1976b: 226), trill (Myers et al, 1978: 325), retarded trill (Myers and Daly, 1979: 18), or retarded chirp (Myers and Burrowes, 1987: 16), and the diversity of dendrobatid calls extends far beyond these few types. Although Lö tters et al (2003b) aimed to expand and standardize the definitions of these calls, they were aware that known calls of most species of dendrobatids do not correspond to any of these types, and additional characterizations such as peeps, cricketlike chirps, croaks, whistled trills, or harsh peep train (e.g., Rodríguez and Myers, 1993;Grant and Castro-Herrera, 1998;Bourne et al, 2001) have been employed, although none of these is defined precisely.…”
