Abstract(s)
Seasonal variation of sound production, which includes boatwhistles, grunts, croaks and double
croaks, was studied in the Lusitanian toadfish Halobatrachus didactylus. Boatwhistles were
emitted during the mating season in contrast with the other sound types, which were emitted all
year round.
