东南亚同步萤火虫通过相移其内源振荡器来响应刺激散列。这就是所谓的“闪电战”。通过改变刺激闪光的形状和持续时间，研究了马六甲翼手龙卷吸释放物。刺激哈希形状和持续时间是数字合成的，并由手持便携式计算机系统交付。计算机还记录了用光度计检测到的雄性萤火虫的闪光。我们发现卷吸的类型和大小受卷吸闪光的持续时间和形状的影响。(C)1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.保留所有权利。
Southeast Asian synchronic fireflies respond to stimulus hashes by phase-shifting their endogenous oscillator. This is called 'flash entrainment'. The releasers for entrainment were studied by changing stimulus flash shape and duration in Pteroptyx malaccae. Stimulus hash shapes and durations were synthesized digitally and delivered by a held-portable computer system. The computer also recorded male firefly flashes that were detected with a photometer. We found that the type of entrainment and its magnitude was influenced by the duration of the entrainment flash and by its shape. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
