"The Auditory Sense of the Honey-Bee" is a 1922 work by N. E. Mcindoo exploring the sound-producing capacity and apparatus of the honey bee. This profusely-illustrated and detailed treatise will appeal to modern bee-keepers and those with scientific interest in the honey bee. Contents include: "So-called Vocal Organs of Insects", "Sound-producing Organ of Honey-bee", "Experiments to Determine how Bees make Sounds", "Morphology of Sound-producing Organ", "Sound-producing Organs of Other Insects", "So-called Auditory Organs of Insects", "Supposed Auditory Organs of Honey-bee", etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on Bee-keeping.

Excerpt from The Auditory Sense of the Honey-Bee Stridulation, special sound-producing apparatus, and various types of supposed auditory organs have been described in true bugs, moths and butter ies, ies and mosquitoes, beetles, and ants, and also in a few larvae and pupae, yet we know very little about this subject.

Intraspecific communication involves the activation of chemoreceptors and subsequent activation of different central areas that coordinate the responses of the entire organism—ranging from behavioral modification to modulation of hormones release. Animals emit intraspecific chemical signals, often referred to as pheromones, to advertise their presence to members of the same species and to regulate interactions aimed at establishing and regulating social and reproductive bonds. In the last two decades, scientists have developed a greater understanding of the neural processing of these chemical signals. Neurobiology of Chemical Communication explores the role of the chemical senses in mediating intraspecific communication. Providing an up-to-date outline of the most recent advances in the field, it presents data from laboratory and wild species, ranging from invertebrates to vertebrates, from insects to humans. The book examines the structure, anatomy, electrophysiology, and molecular biology of pheromones. It discusses how chemical signals work on different mammalian and non-mammalian species and includes chapters on insects, Drosophila, honey bees, amphibians, mice, tigers, and cattle. It also explores the controversial topic of human pheromones. An essential reference for students and researchers in the field of pheromones, this is also an ideal resource for those working on behavioral phenotyping of animal models and persons interested in the biology/ecology of wild and domestic species.

While we may have always assumed that insects employ auditory communication, our understanding of it has been impeded by various technical challenges. In comparison to the study of an insect's visual and olfactory expression, research in the area of acoustic communication has lagged behind. Filling this void, Insect Sounds and Communication is the
