本文报道了中国西部地区的崇安湍蛙（Amolops chunganensis）的广告叫声特征。产于马来西亚半岛的laraclussis和A.描述了婆罗洲的跳鼠。最后一个种有时被归为不同的属，但所有这三个种都被认为是构成一个单一的属，从它们独特的幼虫形态。三种的鸣声在时间和频率上都有很大的差异，根据这些声特征，支持将该属划分为离散的亚属的观点，并将三种分类为A.（Amolops）chunganensis、松原湍蛙A. (Amo)laraclussis和A.（Meristogenys）jerboa.这三个物种的叫声在时间模式上有所不同，但在具有相当高的优势频率和或多或少清晰的频率调制方面是相似的。这些共同的声学特性似乎很好地适应了在沉重的环境噪音之上出现的呼叫。
Advertisement call characteristics of Amolops chunganensis from western China, A. larutensis from Peninsular Malaysia, and A. jerboa from Borneo are described. The last species is sometimes grouped into a different genus, but all the three species are considered to constitute a single genus Amolops (sensu lato) from their unique larval morphology. Calls of the three species differ considerably from each other both in temporal and frequency patterns, and from these acoustic characteristics, the idea of subdividing this genus into discrete subgenera is supported, and the three species are classified as A. (Amolops) chunganensis, A. (Amo) larutensis, and A. (Meristogenys) jerboa. Calls of the three species differ in temporal patterns, but are similar in having rather high dominant frequencies and more or less clear frequency modulations. These common acoustic properties seem to be well adapted for the call to emerge above the heavy environmental noises.
