尽管关于成年雄性小鼠（m.m usculus）发出70 khz超声波发声的文献大量存在，但对成年雌性小鼠的超声波发声几乎一无所知。对成年雌性小鼠的超声发射进行了五组实验。结果表明，雌性小鼠的超声发声(a)在雌性小鼠双体中表现出典型特征，(b)与雌雄小鼠对的超声发声水平相当。还注意到女性超声波产生的基因典型差异。和雄性老鼠一样，社会幼稚的雌性老鼠很容易用超声波向被麻醉的雌性老鼠发出声音，而很少向被麻醉的雄性老鼠发出声音。与雄性不同，有社会经验的雌性对雌性尿液或雌性弄脏的笼子碎片发出的超声波很少。虽然社会经验增加了雄性小鼠对雌性性线索的超声波发射，但社会经验减少了雌性小鼠对这些线索的超声波产生。讨论了成年小鼠超声发声中存在的行为/功能性二态性的含义。
Though an extensive body of literature exists concerning the emission of 70-kHz ultrasonic vocalizations by adult male mice (M. musculus), almost nothing is known about the ultrasonic vocalizing of adult females. A series of five experiments was conducted to examine adult female mouse ultrasound emission. Results indicated female ultrasonic vocalizing to be (a) typically displayed among female mouse dyads and (b) comparable to the ultrasonic vocalizing levels obtained among male-female pairs. Genotypically based variations in the production of ultrasounds by females were also noted. Like male mice, socially naive females readily ultrasonically vocalized to anesthetized females conspecifics and rarely vocalized to anesthestized males. Unlike males, socially experienced femaled emitted few ultrasounds to either female urine or female-soiled cage shavings. Although social experience served to increase the ultrasound emission of male mice to female sex cues, the production of ultrasounds by females to these cues was decreased by social experience. Implications with regard to the existence of a behavioral/functional sexual dimorphism in adult mouse ultrasonic vocalizing are discussed.
