These insects use scraper-like structures on one wing to sweep over file-structures on an opposing wing to create vibrations, producing a variety of trilling and chirping sounds. [ 15 ] [ 16 ] Locusts and other grasshoppers (suborder Caelifera ) stridulate by rubbing hind legs against pegs on wing surfaces in an up and downward motion. [ 17 ]

An IPM program “will require the coordinated effort of all staff members to properly implement, and may initially be more expensive than traditional pest management”. [7]
Many students who enter the music exams have taken a course of music lessons with a private tutor, although some are self-taught. Often this is a way for children to receive music training over and above what is provided at their usual place of learning, although private lessons are also popular with adults who turn to music later in life.
Riodinids are known to make substrate borne sounds in two ways. While most singing riodinid caterpillars produce sound by scraping ribbed vibratory papillae against the rough surface of the head [1] [8] [9] [10] a few riodinids such as E. elvina, achieve the same effect by rubbing the cervical membrane (analogous to a neck) against the head.
Adult owlflies are fast-flying, aerial predators, capturing and feeding on other insects in flight. [6] The larvae too are predatory, making owlflies important in maintaining a natural ecological balance and helping to control pest insects. [7] Adults of many New World species are most active at sunset, and can often be collected near lights.
