Angle-wing Katydid (Microcentrum retinerve)

Angle-wing Katydid (Microcentrum) * Kingdom: Metazoa ((=Animalia) multicellular animals) * Phylum: Arthropoda (arthropods) * Class: Insecta (true insects) * Order: Orthoptera (grasshoppers, crickets, katydids, etc.) * Family: Tettigoniidae (long-horned grasshoppers, katydids, bushcrickets) * Genus: Microcentrum * Species: Microcentrum retinerve * Common Names: Lesser Angle-wing Katydid, Angular-winged Katydid The family Tettigoniidae, known in American English as katydids and in British English as bush-crickets, contains more than 6,400 species. It is part of the suborder Ensifera and the only family in the superfamily Tettigonoidea. They are also known as long-horned grasshoppers, although they are more closely related to crickets than to grasshoppers. Tettigoniids may be distinguished from grasshoppers by the length of their antennae, which may exceed their own body length, while grasshoppers' antennae are always relatively short. The name "katydid" comes from the sound produced by species of the North American genus Pterophylla (literally "winged leaf"). The males of katydids have sound-producing organs (via stridulation) located on the hind angles of their front wings, which in some species produce a sound thought to resemble the words "Katy did, Katy didn't", hence the name. In some species females are also capable of stridulation. There are about 255 species in North America, but the majority of species live in the tropical regions of the world. The diet of tettigoniids includes leaves, flowers, bark, and seeds, but many species are exclusively predatory, feeding on other insects, snails or even small vertebrates such as snakes and lizards. Some are also considered pests by commercial crop growers and are sprayed to limit growth. Large katydids can inflict a painful bite or pinch if handled but seldom break the skin. The spike headed katydid is somewhat notorious for its plantlike appearance, which allows it to blend in with the vegetation on which it lives, and the spikes discourage potential predators. The males provide a nuptial gift for the females in the form of a spermatophore, a nutritious body produced with the males' ejaculate. The katydid is a leaf-like insect which camouflages on leaves.The eggs of a katydids are oval shaped and laid in branches and are laid in lines.

King Baboon hissing

This is my beautiful big female C. crawshayi's defensive display. If you haven't heard a tarantula hiss (stridulate) before. Here ya go! I'm not harming her in any way with the tongs. She's only out of her burrow because I was moving her to a new tank.

ゴマダラカミキリの髪(紙)切り実演 Longicorn, The Hair Cutter

カミキリムシを手で掴むとキーキー鳴いて威嚇します。おまけにこのゴマダラカミキリは口から泡を吹きました(初めて見る現象)。童心に返って名前の由来となった噛み切り実験を行う。 This is a male(?) white-spotted longhorn beetle (Anoplophora chinensis, = Anoplophora malasiaca). I let him bite a piece of paper (post-it) and a strand of my hair. The captive beast frothed at the mouth and squeaked in protest. In Japanese, longhorn beetles are called "kamikiri-mushi" which means "paper cutters" or "hair cutter beetles". This footage demonstrated how sharp their mandibles were. Early-August, 2007 in Japan.

Cricket shaking it

Cricket.. having a little shake & just having a GREAT time!!! Crickets are known for their chirp (which only male crickets can do; male wings have ridges or "teeth" that act like a "comb and file" instrument). The left forewing has a thick rib (a modified vein) which bears 50 to 300 ridges. The chirp is generated by raising their left forewing to a 45 degree angle and rubbing it against the upper hind edge of the right forewing, which has a thick scraper (Berenbaum 1995). This sound producing action is called "stridulation" and the song is species-specific. There are two types of cricket songs: a calling song and a courting song. The calling song attracts females and repels other males, and is fairly loud. The courting song is used when a female cricket is near, and is a very quiet song.Crickets chirp at different rates depending on their species and the temperature of their environment. Most species chirp at higher rates the higher the temperature is (approx. 60 chirps a minute at 13°C in one common species; each species has its own rate). The relationship between temperature and the rate of chirping is known as Dolbear's Law. In fact, according to this law, it is possible to calculate the temperature in Fahrenheit by adding 40 to the number of chirps produced in 15 seconds by the snowy tree cricket common in the United States.To hear the mating call of other crickets, a cricket has ears located on its knees, just below the joint of the front legs.

An educational rap about grasshoppers. They're nice insects.

Strydulowanie P. regalis L7, charakterystyczny dźwięk wydawany przy próbie ukąszenia (podobny do "darcia tkaniny") ;) Troche przesterowane ale musiałem podgłośnić żeby było dobrze słychać.

King baboon tarantula threat posture

My juvenile king baboon tarantula (Citharischius crawshayi) going into its defensive posture. If you listen carefully you can hear it stridulating (hissing). The chirping in the background is a cricket.
