Description
Summary:The vocalizations of the Chinstrap Penguin (Pygoscelis antarctica) are described including information on calling behavior. For each call type, characteristic aucliospectrograms and oscillograms are presented. Numerical information about the spectral and temporal features of the calls is provided as well. The results are compared with descriptions of repertoires of other species of penguins. Peer Reviewed
