TL;DR: Stridulation in ants seems to be a mechanism for modulating the state of readiness of receivers to react to other stimuli (modulatory communication) and the stridulation signal adjusts the distribution of the worker force to a given situation and to group needs in a graded fashion.
Abstract: 1.
In this article, we report the communicative effect of stridulation signals in Novomessor cockerelli and N. albisetosus during foraging
2.
The structure of the stridulatory organ and the main characteristics of airborne and substrate-borne stridulation signals are described.
3.
The stridulation signals are not perceived by the ants over any appreciable distance. However, workers that contact an object transmitting stridulatory vibrations stay at this probe significantly longer than at a nonvibrating control probe.
4.
An information transfer analysis was performed by comparing the probabilities of occurrence of different behavioral acts in workers both before and after contacting either a ‘stridulatory’ test probe or a ‘silent’ control probe. Stridulation did not affect the behavior of food carriers; diggers that carried debris from the nest were slightly but significantly influenced; but a remarkable change did occur in the probabilities of behavioral acts by scout ants.
5.
Stridulation alone does not release a specific behavioral response but rather enhances more or less a change to different behavioral activities in workers.
6.
In a series of field experiments, it was shown that a prey object too large to be retrieved by one ant stimulates the finder ant to stridulate. It was further demonstrated that the vibrational signals received by a second ant that also contacted a prey enhance the release of chemical short-range recruitment signals by this ant. In our experiments, the facilitating effect of stridulation on chemical recruitment led to a time advance of 1–2 min in both the recruitment of workers and in the retrieval of large prey objects by groups of foragers. It has been demonstrated that the rapid group retrieval of large prey objects enables Novomessor workers to successfully compete with mass-recruiting ant species such as Solenopsis and Iridomyrmex.
7.
Significantly more digging is only released at a ‘stridulatory’ test probe if the probe is offered very close to a nest entrance.
8.
Stridulation in ants seems to be a mechanism for modulating the state of readiness of receivers to react to other stimuli (modulatory communication). The stridulation signal adjusts the distribution of the worker force to a given situation and to group needs in a graded fashion, but does not by itself release specific behavioral reactions. This phenomenon is compared with similar functions in other communication systems of complex animal societies.

TL;DR: It is found that the sensory sensitivities of conspecific females were associated with the predominant modes of male courtship communication and coevolution between male signal design and female sensory design is suggested.

TL;DR: Numerical analyses of orthopteroid insects indicate that the Ensifera is a natural group as taxa in this suborder appear to form a separate clade (monophyletic group) in both cladistic and phe- netic analyses.
Abstract: The orthopteran suborder Ensifera is a group of interest to many biologists because members of several families within this group communicate by sounds. The evolutionary history of singing and other social behaviors of crickets, katydids and weta (Gryllidae, Tettigoniidae and Stenopelmatidae, respectively) are unclear because of different published opinions on the relationships among ensiferan subgroups (Ander 1939, Zeuner 1939, Judd 1948, Ragge1955a, Sharov 1968). These opinions were not based on formal quantitative analyses. I undertook a cladistic analysis of ensiferan families using mainly anatomical characters. The single most parsimonious (shortest-length) tree divides the Ensifera into two clades: the 'tettigonioids' which comprise (((((Tettigoniidae & Haglidae) Stenopelmatidae) Cooloolidae) Gryllacrididae) Rhaphidophoridae), and the 'grylloids' ((Schizodactylidae) (Gryllotalpidae & Gryllidae)) (my parentheses enclose separate clades). I used this phylogeny to construct the most parsimonious hypotheses for the origins of certain social behaviours from those present in the ancestor of extant Ensifera (an insect that used a burrow as a retreat). There were two origins of sound communication using tegminal stridulation and foretibial ears, three to four origins of a complex spermatophore that is eaten by the female and about seven origins of maternal care of eggs and/or nymphs, a trait correlated with loss or reduction in the ovipositor. I review support for the hypothesis of dual origins of tegminal stridulation and tibial ears, complex structures that are usually regarded as homologous within the Ensifera. Crickets, katydids (= long-horned grasshoppers), and weta comprise the Ensifera, one of two suborders of Orthoptera (Table 1). Numerical analyses of orthopteroid insects indicate that the Ensifera is a natural group as taxa in this suborder appear to form a separate clade (monophyletic group) in both cladistic and phe- netic analyses (Blackith and Blackith 1968). The group is usually regarded as phylogenetically quite diverged from the other ortho- pteran suborder, Caelifera, the grasshoppers, locusts, and their

TL;DR: A large-scale macroevolutionary study to understand how both hearing and sound production evolved and affected diversification in the insect order Orthoptera, which includes many familiar singing insects, such as crickets, katydids, and grasshoppers finds little evidence that the evolution of hearing andSound producing organs increased diversification rates in those lineages with known acoustic communication.
Abstract: Acoustic communication is enabled by the evolution of specialised hearing and sound producing organs. In this study, we performed a large-scale macroevolutionary study to understand how both hearing and sound production evolved and affected diversification in the insect order Orthoptera, which includes many familiar singing insects, such as crickets, katydids, and grasshoppers. Using phylogenomic data, we firmly establish phylogenetic relationships among the major lineages and divergence time estimates within Orthoptera, as well as the lineage-specific and dynamic patterns of evolution for hearing and sound producing organs. In the suborder Ensifera, we infer that forewing-based stridulation and tibial tympanal ears co-evolved, but in the suborder Caelifera, abdominal tympanal ears first evolved in a non-sexual context, and later co-opted for sexual signalling when sound producing organs evolved. However, we find little evidence that the evolution of hearing and sound producing organs increased diversification rates in those lineages with known acoustic communication.
