  • Phenology is the timing of life events tied to environmental or abiotic cues. We used autonomous recording units (ARUs) across spring-summer months in 2022 to capture breeding calls from canyon treefrog (Hyla arenicolor). ARUs were placed in perennial and intermittent stream reaches across five Wilderness Areas within the upper Verde River basin in Arizona. We monitored streams by installing stream flow gauges (water level recorders). Treefrogs call at relatively low flow after spring floods. This suggests that stream-dwelling anurans may breed in response to flooding followed by prolonged periods of base flows which could be important for tadpole metamorphosis. Implications for stream regulation suggest maintaining the magnitude and timing of flood pulse events can benefit recruitment of stream-breeding amphibians.
