Abstract
Crickets appear to rely less upon olfactory communication than do their non-acoustical relatives, but males and females of house (
Acheta) and field (
Gryllus) crickets can determine sex by odour, and males can distinguish odours of conspecific and heterospecific females. In the presence of female odours, female-deprived males groom more vigorously and are more aggressive.
