Listening for bats: the hearing range of the bushcricket Phaneroptera falcata for bat echolocation calls measured in the field

The hearing range of the tettigoniid Phaneroptera falcata for the echolocation calls of freely flying mouseeared bats (Myotis myotis) was determined in the field. The hearing of the insect was monitored using hook electrode recordings from an auditory interneuron, which is as sensitive as the hearing organ for frequencies above 16kHz. The flight path of the bat relative to the insect's position was tracked by recording the echolocation calls with two microphone arrays, and calculating the bat's position from the arrival time differences of the calls at each microphone. The hearing distances ranged from 13 to 30m. The large variability appeared both between different insects and between different bat approaches to an individual insect. The escape time of the bushcricket, calculated from the detection distance of the insect and the instantaneous flight speed of the bat, ranged from 1.5 to more than 4s. The hearing ranges of bushcrickets suggest that the insect hears the approaching bat long before the bat can detect an echo from the flying insect.
