Song discrimination by male cicadas Cicada barbara lusitanica (Homoptera, Cicadidae).
Cicada barbara lusitanica males presented a stereotyped singing response behaviour when exposed to a playback of the conspecific song. Males preferred (as measured by the time taken to sing) the conspecific signal to heterospecific songs that differed markedly in temporal pattern. Manipulation of the gross temporal pattern of C. barbara calling song significantly reduced stimulus attractiveness...
متن کاملCicadas
Medical Genetics has long been a part of the undergraduate curriculum and is a rapidly increasing component of postgraduate training at all levels, in all specialities. Ian Young has provided a textbook which will delight both undergraduate and postgraduate readers. There are many textbooks which claim to cover essential medical genetic teaching, but many of these are too big, too detailed and ...
متن کاملTitle : Producing Fiber Flax Using Modern Machinery and Field Retting
approv Steven J. Knapp Fiber flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) production in the Willamette Valley ended in Oregon around 1957 before newly developed technology and fiber cultivars were available. The purpose of this research was to explore the use of modern methods and new cultivars. Field studies were conducted to evaluate cultivars and optimum cultural practices that would produce the highest yi...
متن کاملLife Cycle in Periodical Cicadas
-Several lines of evidence suggest that the 13-year life cycle is genetically dominant over the 17-year life cycle in periodical cicadas. They are: (1) 13-year dominance best predicts the decline of 17 -year Brood X, and concomitant increase in Brood XIX in the midwest, following a hypothesized 1868 hybridization with 13-year Brood XIX through assimilation of heterozygotes into Brood XIX; (2) t...
متن کاملDeterministic Chaos in Sounds of Asian Cicadas
We analyze the sound recording of the Southeast Asian cicada Tosena depicta with methods of nonlinear time series analysis. First, we reconstruct the phase space from the sound recording and test it against determinism and stationarity. After positively establishing determinism and stationarity in the series, we calculate the maximal Lyapunov exponent. We find that the latter is positive, from ...
