Aquatic soundscape recordings reveal diverse vocalizations and nocturnal
activity of an endangered frog. The American Naturalist. Rana sierrae (the
Sierra Nevada yellow-legged frog) is an endangered species residing in
high-elevation lakes in the Sierra Nevada mountains. The species is highly
aquatic and, unlike most amphibians, primarily vocalizes while underwater.
As a result, its vocalizations have rarely been recorded and its vocal
repertoire is not well studied. This dataset contains an annotated set of
underwater soundscape recordings
containing 1236 annotations of R. sierrae vocalizations.
We annotated five distinct vocalization types of R. sierrae, only two of
which have been previously documented for this species. Besides the calls
of R. sierrae, these audio recordings also contain stridulation sounds
(not annotated), which were most likely produced by members of the family
Corixidae or other aquatic invertebrates that stridulate
underwater.
