Parallel measurements of A. atropos with two microphones
A single male with proboscis and with cut off proboscis (April 2015)
Parallel measurements with two microphones (see Methods section):
a) Brüel & Kjaer: 3.15 – 20 kHz
b) Microtech Gefell: 5 Hz – 100 kHz)
This appendix reports the results of the Brüel & Kjaer microphone. Results of the
Microtech Gefell microphone are reported in Fig. 5.
