Carineta diardi (Guérin-Méneville, 1829) View in CoL (Colourful-cicada)

Flying song

A series of short echemmes resembling ‘snaps’ produced while males are flying. A total of 12 ± 3 (8–19) echemmes are emitted. The peak frequency is 9.6 ± 0.2 (9.0–10.1) kHz, with echemmes lasting 0.139 ± 0.021 (0.108 –0.209) seconds.

Calling song: composed of short echemmes which gradually increase in intensity (dB), lasting 0.06 ± 0.01 (0.003 –0.143), with a peak frequency of 8.9 ± 1.2 (5.6–9.9) kHz.

Stress call

Composed of longer echemmes with a greater number of notes, lasting approximately 0.187 ± 0.09 seconds, with 47.5 ± 13.8 syllables per echemme. Unlike other species repertoire sounds, this signal presents a broad-range frequency with three peaks of higher intensity, each with a distinct frequency. F1 presents 5.27 ± 0.24 kHz, F2 presents 6.52 ± 0.21 kHz, while F3 presents 8.41 ± 0.35 kHz.

Collection site: Parque Natural Municipal Saint-Hilaire. The cicada sings and flies at heights above 2 metres from the ground. Collected and recorded between September and October 2021, between 9 am and 12 am, with temperatures ranging between 19 and 20°C ( Figures 2A–C View Figure 2 and 5A View Figure 5 ).
