  "summary": "Knowledge of the unique call types produced by a species has historically been an important part of ecological research. However, the definition of a call type is not straightforward, and across species and studies different methods are employed to study call types and vocal repertories. Here, we analysed the methodology used to identify the vocal repertoires of 197 mammalian species across 220…",
