Vibrational Communication in Insects
Communication through substrate-borne vibrations has for long been recognized but in comparison with air-borne sound it has received very little attention. However, in recent years it has become increasingly clear that vibrational signals play a crucial role in communication in many insect groups and we provide a short overview. Vibrational signals are related to sexual behavior, alarm and defe...
متن کاملInter-Plant Vibrational Communication in a Leafhopper Insect
Vibrational communication is one of the least understood channels of communication. Most studies have focused on the role of substrate-borne signals in insect mating behavior, where a male and a female establish a stereotyped duet that enables partner recognition and localization. While the effective communication range of substrate-borne signals may be up to several meters, it is generally acc...
متن کاملTremulatory and Abdomen Vibration Signals Enable Communication through Air in the Stink Bug Euschistus heros
Communication by substrate-borne mechanical signals is widespread among animals but remains one of their least understood communication channels. Past studies of vibrational communication in insects have been oriented predominantly to communication during mating, showing that species- and sex-specific vibrational signals enable recognition and localization of potential mates on continuous solid...
متن کاملAnts are deaf.
Workers of a number of ant species produce vibrational signals, a phenomenon called ‘‘stridulation,’’ with a specialized organ located on their gasters. Even though stridulation can be heard by humans as faint air-borne sound, it has repeatedly been shown that ants are insensitive to the air-borne components of such signals. Instead, they are highly responsive to their substrate-borne component...
متن کاملHistorical use of substrate-borne acoustic production within the Hemiptera: first record for an Australian Lophopid (Hemiptera, Lophopidae)
Here the first record of communication through substrate-borne vibrations for the Lophopidae family is reported. The signals from Magia subocellata that the authors recorded were short calls with a decreasing frequency modulation. Acoustic vibrations have been observed for other families within the Hemiptera and a scenario concerning the historical use of vibrational communication within the He...
