  • Vibrational communication in Nezara viridula: response of Slovenian and Australian bugs to one another
    Jeraj, Marjeta ; Walter, G. H.
    Temporal patterns of intersexual vibrational communication between Slowenian and Australian populations of Nezara viridula were investigated. The vibrational and mating responses of individuals of ... each sex to individuals of the opposite sex from the alternative population were recorded during mating experiments. Australian females did not respond to Slovenian males and only a few copulations occured in this direction, whereas Slovenian female and Australian males responded to each other and copulated regularly. The two populations probably represent distinct sibling species, but this needs to be clarified further. Whether the observed mating asymmetry actually occurs regularly in nature, also warrants investigations. We suggest how these issues may be resolved.
