Furthermore in the brain of anurans which produce and process signals similarly to many acoustic insects various low pass high pass and band pass neurons have been described rose and . Insects and anurans are only distantly related yet their acoustic communication shares many features for example both groups use acoustic communication to bring the sexes together for mating and both can perform their songs perfectly the first time without learning them from other individuals which is not true of most birds many insects and anurans sing in large aggregations finally biologists interested in the production sensory reception and function of animal sounds have studied . H carl gerhardt and franz huber address these questions among many others drawing on research from bioacoustics behavior neurobiology and evolutionary biology to present the first integrated approach to the study of acoustic communication in insects and anurans they highlight both the common solutions that these very different groups have evolved to shared challenges such as small size ectothermy cold bloodedness and noisy environments as well as the divergences that reflect the
