Abstract
Abstract The intersexual drumming signals of four stonefly species from Corsica (France) are described. The male call signal of Isoperla insularis (Morton, 1930) consists of a repetition of short monophasic calls or sequences. Because the female answer is not yet known, it is uncertain if the male call signal should be considered as a repeated monophasic call signal pattern or a grouped call signal pattern. The duet of Protonemura bucolica (Consiglio, 1957) is a two-way exchange with monophasic grouped call and monophasic answer, showing the same general pattern of other Protonemura species. Capnioneura petricola Giudicelli, 1967 has a classic Capnioneura signal with monophasic call and answer signals overlapping. The Tyrrhenoleuctra zavattarii (Consiglio, 1956) duet, the second three-way signal exchange described in the family Leuctridae, has monophasic grouped male call and reply, and monophasic female answer. Drumming signals of the studied species are compared with those of some congeneric European species.
期刊介绍:
Aquatic Insects is an international journal publishing original research on the systematics, biology, and ecology of aquatic and semi-aquatic insects.
The subject of the research is aquatic and semi-aquatic insects, comprising taxa of four primary orders, the Ephemeroptera, Odonata, Plecoptera, and Trichoptera but also aquatic and semi-aquatic families of Hemiptera, Coleoptera, and Diptera, as well as specific representatives of Hymenoptera , Lepidoptera, Mecoptera, Megaloptera , and Neuroptera that occur in lotic and lentic habitats during part of their life cycle. Studies on other aquatic Hexapoda (i.e., Collembola) will be only accepted if space permits. Papers on other aquatic Arthropoda (e.g., Crustacea) will not be considered, except for those closely related to aquatic and semi-aquatic insects (e.g., water mites as insect parasites).
The topic of the research may include a wide range of biological fields. Taxonomic revisions and descriptions of individual species will be accepted especially if additional information is included on habitat preferences, species co-existing, behavior, phenology, collecting methods, etc., that are of general interest to an international readership. Descriptions based on single specimens are discouraged.
Detailed studies on morphology, physiology, behavior, and phenology of aquatic insects in all stadia of their life cycle are welcome as well as the papers with molecular and phylogenetic analyses, especially if they discuss evolutionary processes of the biological, ecological, and faunistic formation of the group.
