Duetting between the sexes in insects involves the use of airborne acoustic signals,
substrate vibration and bioluminescence. Unlike avian duets, in which females may initiate …

While the sensing of substrate vibrations is common among arthropods, the reception of
sound pressure waves is an adaptation restricted to insects, which has arisen independently …
