Account

What the sources say about this taxon, as written.

behaviour · bio.acousti.ca

Males fly with a loud rattling sound, which is produced by the hind wings. Together with the strikingly bright red wings, this may serve to startle potential enemies. It also has a function in courtship. In cooler weather and after repeated disturbance, the insects fly quietly. The females can rattle while sitting or jumping.

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.
