Abstract: Communication is defined as the interactions between two or more individual insects that may result in a change in their behavior. This chapter includes descriptions of the methods by which insects initiate and respond to methods of visual communication, acoustical communication, tactile communication, and chemical communication with pheromones. Bees communicate using several of these methods, including a sophisticated dance language.

Separation of overlapping waveforms having known temporal distributions
TL;DR: A simple Fourier technique is described that allows isolation of component waveforms from recordings of time-shifted, overlapping, linear sums of these components and can be generalized to allow recovery of waveforms that have been distorted by many time-invariant linear processes in addition to time delays.

Antibiotics from Insect-Associated Actinobacteria
TL;DR: The literature from the January 2016-August 2022 period devoted to insect-associated actinomycetes with antagonistic and/or enzyme-inhibiting activity was selected as mentioned in this paper .
Theory and application of the measurement of structure and determination of function for laboratory ecosystems
TL;DR: An algorithm for the measurement of ecosystem structure designed for the purpose of computing ecosystem function is developed based upon a new deterministic theory of sampling which gives bounds on the sample period for data collection.

On the application of Fourier-transform-based methods to the analysis of alpha-particle spectra
TL;DR: In this article, the application of methods based on the Fourier Transform to the analysis of alpha-particle spectra measured with semiconductor detectors is discussed and two techniques, smoothing and deconvolution, are reviewed.

Ecology of infochemical use by natural enemies in a tritrophic context.
Louise E. M. Vet,Marcel Dicke +1 more
TL;DR: It is shown that information from the first and second trophic levels differs in availability and in reliability, a difference that shapes the way infochemicals are used by a species.
‘Pheromones’: a New Term for a Class of Biologically Active Substances
P. Karlson,M. Lüscher +1 more
TL;DR: It is shown that the sexual attractants of butterflies are, like hormones, produced and secreted by special glands; minute amounts cause a specific reaction in the receptor organ, which eventually leads to a state of copulative readiness.

Exploitation of Sexual Signals by Predators and Parasitoids
Marlene Zuk,Gita R. Kolluru +1 more
TL;DR: Signals used to attract mates are often conspicuous to predators and parasites, and their evolution via sexual selection is expected to be opposed by viability selection, while plants emit attractants analogous to secondary sex characters in animals, and may also be vulnerable to signal exploitation.
