Para os grilos?!

Tem um PIP, Judite . . . e está nos keywords também.

Eu vi mas julgava que era proibido, Zé
Obrigada

Quando era miúda era comum as pessoas engaiolarem os grilos... e eu era especialista em sair de noite à socapa para os libertar....

Lkhilikithi????

Basta reler o que eu já disse à Judite !!!

!!!

Crickets make a noise that children believe is a kind of "music", or "song" .
Here goes the explanation:

Most male crickets make a loud chirping sound by stridulation (scraping two specially textured limbs together). The stridulatory organ is located on the tegmen, or fore wing, which is leathery in texture. A large vein runs along the centre of each tegmen, with comb-like serrations on its edge forming a file-like structure, and at the rear edge of the tegmen is a scraper. The tegmina are held at an angle to the body and rhythmically raised and lowered which causes the scraper on one wing to rasp on the file on the other. The central part of the tegmen contains the "harp", an area of thick, sclerotinized membrane which resonates and amplifies the volume of sound, as does the pocket of air between the tegmina and the body wall. Most female crickets lack the necessary adaptations to stridulate, so make no sound.

Good work.
Have a great new week...
