Sound with a frequency lower than about 20 cycles per second, called infrasonic sound. Sound with a frequency higher than about 20,000 cycles per second, called ultrasonic sound.

Many echo-locating bats can call at extraordinarily high SPLs - I believe there is one South American species that can produce an SPL of up to 120dB re 20µPa - although as bats are small animals the call power is very low.It's true that you won't normally hear an underwater animal's call, because the sound is reflected back down from the water surface.
