Supersonus Undulus
''Supersonus'' is a genus of Tettigoniidae, katydids in the order Orthoptera first described in 2014. The genus contains three species which are endemic to the rainforests of South America. Its name is an allusion to the fact that the males, in order to attract the females, produce a very high frequency noise which can reach 150 kHz (using only the right wing). This has been considered the highest frequency ultrasonic noise of the animal kingdom. The noise is imperceptible to human hearing, which is only capable of detecting up to 20 kHz. Habitat ''Supersonus'' species inhabit tropical to lowland rainforest environments at heights between above the forest floor, often a few meters below the forest canopy. They live on and among the epiphyte, epiphytal growth such as bromeliads and orchids on tree trunks and limbs. Populations of ''Supersonus aequoreus'' are known on the islands of Gorgona Island (Colombia), Gorgona and Gorgona Island (Colombia)#Geography, Gorgonilla ...
