Bush Cricket

The Amazonian bush-cricket or katydid, Thliboscelus hypericifolius (Orthoptera: Tettigoniidae: Pseudophyllinae), called tananá by the natives was reported to have a song so beautiful that they were kept in cages for the pleasure of listening to the melodious sound. The interchange of letters between Henry Walter Bates and Charles Darwin regarding the tananá and the issue of stridulation in Orthoptera indicates how this mysterious insect, which seems to be very rare, contributed to the theory of sexual selection developed by Darwin.

Abstract During the period 2008-2012, the bush-cricket Isophya harzi Kis, 1960 has been the subject of several collecting trips in Cozia Mountains, where it was believed to be endemic, in order to study its acoustic behaviour. However, on a recent trip to Piatra Craiului Mountains, to study its Orthoptera fauna, I. harzi was surprisingly found in clearings and mountain steppe slopes covered with tall subalpine vegetation from Northern and Western areas. Bioacoustic analysis and some ecological notes are presented in the paper.

Bush Cricket

1. Pholidoptera griseoptera males singing alone or alternating with other males produce short chirps of three or occasionally four syllables (wing movements) lasting about 100 msec. (at 18° C.). 2. Close proximity of singing males may result in rivalry behaviour where chirps lasting up to about 4 sec. may be produced. The long chirp is not usually continuous but has a number of breaks or ‘stutters’. 3. The syllables and syllable rates in the long chirp and short chirp are essentially similar. 4. At the end of a short chirp or of a group of syllables in the long chirp, the syllable rate is decreased, possibly indicating a waning of excitation of the syllable-producing mechanism. 5. Males within hearing range of each other alternate or occasionally synchronize their short chirps. The pattern of this interaction appears to be determined mainly by mutual inhibition between the singing males. Mutual excitation may cause an in crease in chirp rate during the interaction. 6. Chirping may be controlled by a pacemaker system which can be inhibited or excited by its various inputs. A long chirp is possibly the result of a high level of excitation of this mechanism. 7. Alternation singing and rivalry behaviour between males may have a territorial significance.
