Bradyporus (Callimenus) conophallus Unal 2011

Description

Bradyporus (Callimenus) conophallus Ünal, 2011

Distribution. B. (Callimenus) conophallus is endemic to Anatolia. It was recorded only from Isparta province of Turkey (Figure 1A) (Ünal 2011b; Ünal 2017).

Song recording. Male specimens collected from Turkey, Isparta, Senirkent-Şuhut road, 3 km. roadside, 38°09.33’ N, 030°43.48’ E, 950 m, 02.VII.2015 (by D. Şirin, M.S. Taylan & A. Mol) and calling song recorded from three males at 31 °C in the field (D. Şirin & M.S. Taylan).

Description of song. Nine records from three males were examined. The calling song consists of polysyllabic sequences of variable duration (0.62– 3.99 s (2.51± 0.91)) with an interval of 5– 40.66 s (14.73 ± 8.91) (Figure 1B). Sequences are consisting of 125–235 (211.67 ± 21.86) syllables. At the beginning of the sequences, the syllables are in low amplitude (nearly first 30 syllables) than the remaining syllables are in a sequence (Figure 1C). The syllable period duration varies between 11 and 16 ms (13.02 ± 1.02). The number of syllables in 100 ms is 7–8 (Figure 1C). Syllables have a crescendo structure and each of syllables includes 6–12 impulses (8.25 ± 1.28) (Figure 1D).
