The song is quite similar to that of
P. armeniacus
. In both recordings of this species a continuous series of syllables (up to 35 s) is heard, produced with SRRs of 9.2–10.4 Hz (
T
=29ºC;
Fig. 6
). The syllables had durations of ca. 67–85 ms and contained 6 impulses, resulting in a mean interval of 14 ms between the impulses.
The spectrum of the song had its peak between 30 and 40 kHz (
Fig. 9
).
