Communication with Signals Produced by Abdominal Vibration, Tremulation, and Percussion inPodisus maculiventris(Heteroptera: Pentatomidae)

Abstract: Mating behaviors of the predaceous spined soldier bug, Podisus maculiventris (Say) (Pentatomidae: Asopinae), were observed, and vibrational signals used in intraspecific communication were recorded and analyzed. Only males produced vibrational signals, using three different vibrational modes: vibration of the abdomen, percussion with the front legs, or tremulation of the body. When recorded on a nonresonant substrate (a loudspeaker membrane), the mean dominant frequency of signals produced by abdominal vibrati… Show more

“…Both species produced signals by abdominal vibrations and tremulation, but the percussion signals recorded from P. maculiventris had no apparent counterpart in P. bidens. On the other hand, the song repertoire of P.bidens contained one female and four different male songs whereas P. maculiventris females were silent and males produced just one song type by abdominal vibration [4]. Tremulatory signals of both species shared similar characteristics and were comparable with signals previously reported from male P. bidens [14].…”

“…The songs produced by male P. bidens are more similar to those of phytophagous stink bugs [19] than to the signals described to date from male Asopinae [4,15]. The MS1 short pulses triggered by signals from females give rise either to longer MS2 songs or to more complex MS3 pulse trains.…”

“…Em múltiplas cópulas, as fêmeas podem escolher machos que trazem maiores benefícios (Berrigan & Locke 1991, Parker & Simmons 1994. Para alguns insetos, recursos oferecidos como território, morfologia genital, peso e tamanho do macho ou o tamanho de estruturas relacionadas ao comportamento de coorte são sexualmente selecionados e estão associados ao sucesso de cópula (Andersson 1994, Andersson & Iwasa 1996, Tadler et al 1999, Žunič et al 2008. Neste estudo, duas hipóteses foram testadas: 1) fêmeas de P. nigrispinus ao realizar múltiplas cópulas escolhem machos que oferecem maiores mantidas e observadas a cada dois dias com substituição da presa consumida, coleta das posturas e contagem de fêmeas sobreviventes.…”
