Acoustic satellite behaviour in the Australian bushcricket Elephantodeta nobilis

Article Abstract:

Male and female Australian bushcrickets, Elephantodeta nobilis, duet with the female responding to the male's call. The four parts of the male's call are described as A, B, C and D. The female was found to reply 570 ms after the D pulse of the male, which followed part B. Noncalling males used satellite methods by inserting clicks 200 ms before the alpha male's D pulse.
