“…Gryllus bimaculatus and T. oceanicus both use CHCs to determine the genetic relatedness of potential mates (Simmons, 1989(Simmons, , 1990Thomas and Simmons, 2011). G. bimaculatus, Acheta domesticus, G. integer, T. oceanicus, and T. commodus respond to sex differences in chemosensory cues (von Hörmann-Heck, 1957;Otte and Cade, 1976;Rence and Loher, 1977;Hardy and Shaw, 1983;Tregenza and Wedell, 1997;Nagamoto et al, 2005;Leonard and Hedrick, 2009), and in some cases CHC profiles have been shown to differ between the sexes (Warthen and Uebel, 1980;Tregenza and Wedell, 1997;Thomas and Simmons, 2008). Given their general importance in mate choice in crickets, we might also expect CHCs to play an important role in species recognition.…”
