Presented here, is the first study on the vocalisations of long-finned pilot whales along the southern coast of mainland Australia. Multiple measures were taken of 2028 vocalisations recorded over five years in several locations. These vocalisations included tonal sounds with and without overtones, sounds of burst-pulse character, graded sounds, biphonations, and calls of multiple components. Vocalisations were further categorised based on spectrographic features into 18 contour classes. Altogether, vocalisations ranged from approximately 200 Hz to 25 kHz in fundamental frequency and from 0.03 s to 2.07 s in duration. These measures compared well with those from northern hemisphere pilot whales. Some call types were almost identical to northern hemisphere vocalisations, even though the geographic ranges of the two populations are far apart. Other call types were unique to Australia. Striking similarities with calls of short-finned pilot whales (<i>Globicephala macrorhynchus</i>) and sometimes sympatric killer whales (<i>Orcinus orca</i>) were also found. Theories for call convergence and divergence are discussed.","AbstractOtherLang":null,"BibLvlCode":"AS","StandardTitle":"Australian long-finned pilot whales (<i>Globicephala melas</i>) emit stereotypical, variable, biphonic, multi-component, and sequenced vocalisations, similar to those recorded in the Northern Hemisphere","OrigTitleLangCode":"en","OrigTitleLangCodeExtended":"eng","OrigTitleLangID":15,"DateLastModified":{"date":"2026-06-16 01:33:20.625582","timezone_type":1,"timezone":"+02:00"},"UserAccessRight":null,"UserAccID":null,"AuthorKeywords":null,"OtherDescriptors":null,"Notes":null,"AnaPub":2020,"MonPub":null,"DateUpdate":"2020-12-04","DateCreate":"2020-12-03","SecASFANote":null,"ConfID":null,"PeerRev":1,"VlizCoreFlag":1,"WoScode":"WOS:000596325700018","VABBcode":null,"OpenAcc":1,"DOI":"10.1038/s41598-020-74111-y"},"refs":null,"anarec":{"AnaID":331685,"PubliDate":2020,"Pagination":"20609","XtraPublOfAnaID":null,"ISBN":null,"Volume":"10","Issue":"1","BRefMon":null,"BRefMonRR":null,"BRefXtra":null,"BRefXtraRR":null,"SerBRefID":208093,"SerRR":"Scientific Reports (Nature Publishing Group).
