Abstract

Acoustic courtship of males of three species, Epacromius pulverulentus, E. tergistinus and Platypygius crassus from Russia (Southern Siberia) and Ukraine (Cis-Azov Region), are described and illustrated by oscillograms at the first time.There are two types of stridulation: tegmina-femoral (all species) and tibia-tegminal (E.tergistinus).Calling signals for these species are not recognized.
