“…This closely matches the dominant frequency in the biosonar cries of ten insectivorous bats known to occur in the area of Ecuador that we sampled (P. Jarrin, personal communication, from survey at Tinalandia, Eucador) (Albuja-V., 1999): -59.6±23.7·kHz [Tadarida brasiliensis (Simmons et al, 1978) Clicks, number of microclicks in the active modulation half-cycle; intensity, peak equivalent sound pressure level in decibels (dB pe SPL); isi, intra-cycle silent interval. (Belwood, 1988); Molossus molossus (Kössl et al, 1999); Rhynchonycteris naso (Fenton et al, 1999); Myotis nigricans (Siemers et al, 2001); Peropteryx macrotis, Mormops megalophylla, Eptesicus furinalis and Myotis keasyi (Rydell et al, 2002)]. However, this close match in frequency should be interpreted with caution as we have no way of knowing if the bat and moth assemblages were sampled randomly or the predator/prey dynamics between these assemblages.…”
