he Common Coqu� or Coqu�
(Eleutherodactylus coqui) is a frog native to Puerto Rico
belonging to the Eleutherodactylus genus of the Leptodactylidae
family. The species is named for the loud sound (sometimes
reaching as high as 100 dB at a distance of 0.5 m) the males
make at night. This sound serves two purposes. \'CO\' serves to
repel males and establish territory while the \'QUI\' serves to
attract females. Since the auditory systems of males and females
respond preferentially to different notes of the male call, this
is an example of a sex difference in a sensory system. The
Common Coqu� is a very important aspect of Puerto Rican culture
Native to the island of Puerto Rico , the Coqui Frog is the
official animal of Puerto Rico and its presence is felt (and
heard) throughout the island. The Coqui belongs to the
eleutherodactylus genus, which is greek for �free toes�. Coquis
are grayish in color and are very small frogs. Fully grown male
coquis are an average 34mm long, while females are usually
around 41mm.
uerto Ricans are often heard using the phrase \"Yo
soy de aqui como el coqui\" I am from here, like the coqui

ven though
<strong>Greece</strong> is a small country comparing to others,
there\'s an amazing characteristic about it.
he Greek Islands
are a collection of <strong>over 6,000</strong> islands and
islets that belong to Greece.
nly 227 of the islands are
inhabited, and only 78 of those have more than 100 inhabitants.
Also Greece has a coastline of <strong>13.676 km</strong>,
which is a huge number considering the size of the country.
