Abstract
Stridulatory structures of the flight wings and elytra, and a dorsal chamber in the thoracic abdominal junction of C. traquebarica Herbst are described. The functions of these structures are considered. A list is provided of 62 species of tiger beetles and 13 species of ground beetles which have stridulatory files on the flight wings.Keywords
