雌性（499只）H.在48和85 dB之间的声压级（SPL）下进行的2选择回放实验中，灰视网膜做出820个响应。约1/3的动物在48 dB时有反应，并且百分比随着SPL的增加而增加。女性没有表现出偏好的标准合成呼叫与2个组件（0.9 + 3.0 kHz）的相等的相对振幅比单组件（0.9 kHz）呼叫在48 dB SPL，但选择双峰刺激在54 dB和更高的SPL。只有当两种声音的回放水平（总SPL）为72 dB或更高时，女性才会选择标准的叫声而不是高频峰值衰减12或6 dB的叫声。女性选择标准的呼叫，而不是在整个播放水平范围内（48-85 dB）低频峰值衰减12 dB的呼叫;当低频峰值衰减6 dB时，女性更喜欢低到中等SPL的标准呼叫，但不是高SPL。行为结果与自然环境中的声通信和来自H.灰叶
Females (499) of H. cinerea made 820 responses in 2-choice playback experiments conducted at sound pressure levels (SPL) between 48 and 85 dB. About 1/3 of the animals responded at 48 dB, and the percentage increased as a function of SPL. Females did not show a preference for a standard synthetic call with 2 components (0.9 + 3.0 kHz) of equal relative amplitude over a single-component (0.9 kHz) call at 48 dB SPL, but chose the bimodal stimulus at 54 dB and higher SPL. Females chose the standard call over calls in which the high-frequency peak was attenuated by 12 or 6 dB, only when the playback level (overall SPL) of the 2 sounds was 72 dB or higher. Females chose the standard call over one in which the low-frequency peak was attenuated by 12 dB over the entire range of playback levels (48-85 dB); when the low frequency peak was attenuated by 6 dB, females preferred the standard call at low to moderate, but not high SPL. The behavioral results are related to acoustic communication in the natural environment and to basic neurophysiological data from the auditory system of H. cinerea.
