This dataset covers the sounds of the Anura sound collection of Xeno-canto (XC). XC is an online database that provides access to sound recordings of wildlife from around the world. The recordings are shared by a growing community of thousands of recordists from all over the world, amateurs and professionals alike. The aim of Xeno-canto is to eventually represent sounds of all animals, meaning of all taxa, to subspecies level, of their complete repertoire, with all of the geographic variability, at all stages of development.The website of Xeno-canto (www.xeno-canto.org) was launched in 2005, and initially focussed on Neotropical birds. The scope of Xeno-canto is gradually widening and the Anurans sound collection was started in March 2024. XC is run by the Xeno-canto Foundation for Nature Sounds in The Netherlands, with support from Naturalis Biodiversity Center. Please note that the Anura sound dataset shared on GBIF is a subset of the entire collection that is available on https://xeno-canto.org/?gid=3. Only the recordings by recordists who have given their permission to share recording metadata with GBIF are shared here.
