Like humans, insects possess sensory organs responsible for vision, hearing, smell, taste, and touch. For vision, insects primarily rely on compound eyes. But what about hearing? For example, crickets ...
Insects exhibit a remarkable diversity in auditory systems, which have evolved independently multiple times to facilitate intra‐species communication and predator avoidance. A prime example is the ...

Insect miniaturisation represents a remarkable evolutionary strategy whereby species evolve significantly reduced body sizes while maintaining—and often innovating—complex anatomical and functional ...
Many insect species hear using tympanal organs, membranes roughly resembling our eardrums but located on their legs. Grasshoppers, mantises, and moths all have them, and for decades, we thought that ...
