The Songs of Insects,
Lange Elliott and Wil Hershberger
The Songs of Insects is a celebration of the
chirps, trills, and scrapes of 77 common species of crickets,
katydids, locusts, and cicadas native to eastern and central North
America. The book and accompanying CD provide a unique doorway
to enjoyment of the insect concerts and solos that dominate our
natural soundscape during the summer and autumn. The text
includes information on the natural history of insects,
identification tips, and an appreciation of insect songs. The
70-minute audio CD features high-quality recordings of the songs of
all species in the book, track-keyed to the information in the text.
Each species is depicted with one or more large, high-quality,
full-color photographs, along with range map and sonogram of the
song. Softcover, 8½ x 8½, 228 pages, audio CD.
Published April, 2007.
