While exploring our surroundings the night sounds began to hum and we were captivated by the resonant stridulation of a katydid echoing loudly through the air. Intrigued, we successfully located the source and observed the creature in action. With specialized forewings, it deftly rubbed them together, creating a high-pitched noise designed to allure females. This mesmerizing stridulation occurs as the scraper on the right forewing engages with a tooth-covered file on the left forewing - an intricate mechanism that left us utterly fascinated!
