Echoortung bei der Fledermaus Chilonycteris rubiginosa
TLDR
Chilonycteris rubiginosa erzeugt in allen Orientierungsituationen dreiteilige Ortungslaute.Abstract:
Chilonycteris rubiginosa erzeugt in allen Orientierungsituationen dreiteilige Ortungslaute. Im Anfangsteil steigt die Frequenz um etwa 1–2 kHz an. Der folgende Mittelteil hat eine konstante Frequenz von etwa 57 bis 57,6 kHz. Im Endteil fallt die Frequenz um etwa 8 kHz ab. Die Laute werden in Folgen von Lautgruppen ausgesendet.read more

The descending auditory pathway and acousticomotor systems: connections with the inferior colliculus
Russell F. Huffman,O.W. Henson +1 more
TL;DR: The descending auditory system includes 3 separate, but parallel pathways connecting the AC, MGB and IC, which affords to the auditory system remarkable parallel processing capabilities.

Encoding of target range and its representation in the auditory cortex of the mustached bat.
William O'Neill,Nobuo Suga +1 more
TL;DR: The auditory cortex of the mustached bat is explored using pairs of acoustic stimuli mimicking the multiharmonic biosonar signals (pulses) used by this species and their echoes to explore a new type of cortical organization which is not tonotopic but which represents an important acoustic cue related to the time course of acoustic events.

Cortical Neurons Sensitive to Combinations of Information-Bearing Elements of Biosonar Signals in the Mustache Bat
TL;DR: The properties of neurons in the major clusters of the auditory cortex of the mustache bat indicate that processing of information carried by the frequency-modulated components of echoes is facilitated by the first harmonic of the emitted biosonar signal.

Cortical computational maps for auditory imaging
TL;DR: The neurophysiological studies of the mustached bat's auditory system provide an excellent data base for computational models and the IBPs are mapped, which greatly depend upon subcortical signal processing.

Performance of Airborne Animal Sonar Systems: I. Microchiroptera
TL;DR: Some animals, during evolution, developed eyes which were especially adapted for good visual efficiency at low light intensities whereas others improved the remaining sensory systems.
