Acoustic difference in advertisement calls among two sympatric species: A confirmatory case to acoustic niche hypothesis and morphological constraint hypothesis.

In anurans, acoustic communication is the most important form of communication at the interspecific and intraspecific levels. Acoustic diagnostic features may be a potential alternative to morphometric and molecular diagnostics. Here, we assessed the variations in advertisement calls between two sympatric species, and , that share their breeding season and breeding sites.

Complete mitochondrial genome of oriental pratincole (Charadriiformes: Glareolidae) and its phylogenetic relationship.

Oriental Pratincole is a widely distributed water bird species of the Charadriiformes group across Eurasia. In this study, we reveal the mitochondrial genome sequence of the Oriental Pratincole for the first time. The length of the mitochondrial genome is 18,422 bp and contains 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 13 protein coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, and 2 D-loop sequences.
