dc.description.abstract© 2019, Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature. Light-based stimuli elicited acoustic responses in male Hylesinus aculeatus Say (Curculionidae: Scolytinae: Hylesinina) instantaneously, with 100% reliability. Stridulations were elicited with a white light beam in a dark environment and recorded with an ultrasonic microphone. Acoustic responses were consistent, and, when compared with sounds produced under stressful conditions (i.e. physical stimulation), no significant differences were found. Hylesinus aculeatus possess an elytro-tergal stridulatory organ and acoustic communication is only present in males. This is also the first report of acoustic communication for this species. Instantaneous light-elicited acoustic communication has potential applications in the development of electronic traps and real-time acoustic detection and identification of beetles, border biosecurity, and noise-reduction in acoustic data collection.en
