Frog Voices of Borneo Compiled by T.U. Grafe & J.M. Dehling
Most frog calls were recorded in Brunei or in the Malaysian states of Sabah or Sarawak. The species have been sorted into three categories to allow easier identification depending on where a listener is: (1) urban, heavily degraded habitat, (2) forests at low elevations (900 m ASL). Advertisement calls of 67 species are made available as well as four soundscape recordings in which the full complexity of frog chorusing behaviour can be heard.
