look at http://www.unipv.it/cibra/insec.html and
http://www.unipv.it/cibra/clip.html (Ectatomma sound is slowed down ten

basically ants stridulated rubbing a "plectrum" on a surface filled with
equally spaced reliefs (like pars stridens). They produce series of very
thin pulses whose spectrum extends into the ultrasound realm. What you can=
hear is something like zzz zzz zzz zzz or zzz zzz zzz zzz
