Bat Predation and Its Influence on Calling Behavior in Neotropical Katydids
TL;DR: Foliage-gleaning bats in Panama can use the female-attracting, airborne calling songs of nocturnal katydids to locate prey and feed heavily on these insects.

Journal ArticleDOI
High ultrasonic and tremulation signals in neotropical katydids (Orthoptera: Tettigoniidae)
TL;DR: Eavesdropping by predatory bats offers the most plausible selective explanation for the features of M. speciosum's signal system, supported by the species' sexually dimorphic defensive spination: males, the sound-signalling sex, have metafemoral spines of greater size and distinctive orientation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Calling display and mating behaviour of Copiphora rhinoceros Pictet (Orthoptera: Tettigoniidae)
TL;DR: Males of a neotropical katydid, Copiphora rhinoceros, were found to alternate stereotyped bouts of body vibration (tremulation) with an 8.7-kHz air-borne song, which is remarkable in combining vegetation-conducted transverse waves with stridulation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phonotactic preferences of female meadow katydids (Orthoptera: Tettigoniidae: Conocephalus nigropleurum)
TL;DR: Sexually receptive females of Conocephalus nigropleurum were tested in an arena at 30 °C for responsiveness to tape-recorded models of male calling song, indicating that discriminatory criteria change with particular combinations.
