🍂 Ever watched an insect climbing a stem in complete silence and wondered what’s happening?
🎤 In our latest episode, Ass. Prof. Rachele Nieri from the University of Trento introduces us to biotremology: how insects communicate through substrate vibrations—tiny signals like miniature earthquakes.

Biotremology: Spider webs are not just a lazy way to capture prey
The funnel-weaving spider Agelenopsis pennsylvanica, tested in urban vs. rural habitats under quiet vs. loud noise treatments, was found to be able to influence information reception in the presence of environmental noise carried through the external sensory surface of its web.

More and more, scientists are realizing that all sorts of animals use substrate vibrations for communication, hunting, & predator avoidance. The study of the production, dispersion and reception of mechanical vibrations and their effects on behavior is known as biotremology
