Here we characterise nocturnal signalling patterns in the bladder grasshopper Bullacris unicolor and relate this to biotic and abiotic factors, thus providing insights into ecological drivers of acoustic signalling behaviour. Passive acoustic recorders monitored nocturnal calling activity of the focal species, competitors, and predatory bats across the distribution of B. unicolor. Results indicate that B. unicolor calls preferentially at certain times of the night, but that peak activity period varies across the geographic range.enBiodiversityConservationBioacousticsEcologyBullacris unicolorTemporal partitioning of Bullacris unicolor (Orthoptera: Pneumoridae) calling activity to avoid predationArticle
