behaviour · bio.acousti.ca
Melanogryllus desertus (Pallas, 1771) (Figs. 3; 10; 17) - the species stridulates from June to September, in the evening and at night. The calling song is composed from echemes of 12-13 hemisyllables and the gaps between echemes are very variable, from 0.1 and 0.5 second at 30oC and sometimes more than 1 second at a temperature below 20oC. An echeme has 0.2 – 0.3 seconds. he stridulation begins in the afternoon and lasts until late at night; it can be heared from more than 15 meters. The pars stridens has approximately 2,5 mm (the area with stridulatory pegs) and 136 pegs.
