- •
Lesions of the abdominal nerve cord were performed to analyse song pattern generation.
- •
Long-term acoustic recordings revealed lesion-specific changes in the calling song.
- •
Abdominal ganglia 3 and 4 house the CPG for pulses.
- •
Abdominal ganglia 4–6 control the generation of chirps.
- •
The calling song pattern is modularly organized in the abdominal ganglia
