Polyrythmie et accords de cigales. Enregistrées en fin mai à Malinalco, (Lom Usi Pro).
je ne connais pas le nom précis de l'espèce. Il semblerait que ce sont les mâles qui font ce son en agitant une partie de leur abdomen, pour la reproduction et des questions de territoire, seulement deux mois dans l'année.

Chicharras - Nuit - Malinalco

Possible rare example of chorusing larvae of Longhorn beetles. I did not make a visual ID but this seems similar to Monochamus recorded by Veljo Runnel some years ago. https://soundcloud.com/estlander/unidentified
This recording was made close to the base of the tree to highlight the amount of falling debris being produced by the beetles. Recorded on the north coast of Saaremaa island in Estonia, July 28th, 2024.

Longhorn Beetle larvae chorusing

Black Crickets (Gryllus bimaculatis) also known as Mediterranean field crickets. Recorded in captivity at the London Zoo, using a pair of DPA4060 omnidirectional microphones.

Black Crickets

Underground recording of Pachnoda marginata peregrina (aka sun beetle, aka Congo rose chafer, aka taxicab beetle) larvae in captivity at the London Zoo.

Larvae of many Coleoptera (beetle) families possess stridulatory organs. Stridulations are actively produced sounds for communication created by rubbing together certain body parts*

It is still (March 2025) unclear why beetle larvae produce these sounds, though communication (attracting mates or warning other insects) is the prime theory.
