Response Mode Choice in a Multimodally Duetting Paleotropical Pseudophylline Bushcricket

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2018
Females of the pseudophylline bushcricket species Onomarchus uninotatus respond to a conspecific acoustic call with bouts of tremulation, followed by phonotaxis in some cases. This tremulation sends out a vibratory signal that propagates along the branch

Of walls and floors: how physical structures affect mating song detection in stridulating orthopterans

open access: yesEcological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, Page 141-152, February 2026.
Schematic representation of the experimental settings for one field type. Each setting was assigned one of the three treatments (i.e., walls, floors, or control). Each treatment contained an AudioMoth™ (circle), either positioned close to the ground (5 cm) or elevated (60 cm), acting as a receiver organism. Abstract Sensory ecology theory proposes that

Pollination ecology in the tropical Andes: moving towards a cross‐scale approach

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 6, Page 2312-2345, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Plant–pollinator interactions structure ecological communities and represent a key component of ecosystem functioning. Pollination networks are expected to be more diverse and specialised in the tropics, but pollination ecology in these regions has been understudied in comparison to other areas.
