Account

What the sources say about this taxon, as written.

behaviour · bio.acousti.ca

The males stridulate freely with their mandibles when they meet others of their kind. The sounds are audible from about 50cm and are accompanied by vigorous twitching movements of the antennae, palps and hind femora. For mating, the male approaches the female in jerks, but cautiously, making gradually quieter mandible-sounds.

Counts are recordings at or below each taxon, so an empty branch shows as empty before you click it. A dash means the join view holds no column for that rank and cannot roll up to it.

The rows audioBlast holds for this taxon, each matched to the same Catalogue of Life node. Where a source classifies it differently, its own classification is kept.
