{"data":[{"source":"bio.acousti.ca","id":"47546","topic":"behaviour","value":"The most characteristic property of the calling song of M. tomini is the extraordinarily large duration of its syllables (Fig. 7J). At 20oC the last syllable of a bi-syllabic echeme lasted about 200 ms. Only M. helleri is in the same range (150 ms at 30oC). However, both species differ considerably in the number of impulses per syllable: M. helleri has 32 impulses (and 39 teeth in the stridulatory file; Ciplak et al 2006), M. tomini ca. 80 impulses (and 108 teeth; Fig. 6C). Concerning the number of syllables per echeme, there is a surprising variability (Figs 7J1, 7J2). One animal (CH5317) showed consistently always three to six (eight) syllables per echeme (cage recording at 16oC), the others only two to four.","topic_link":"http:\/\/rs.tdwg.org\/ontology\/voc\/SPMInfoItems#Behaviour","info_url":"https:\/\/bio.acousti.ca\/node\/47546"}]}
