Trigonidium cicindeloides is a small beetle-like species of sword-tail crickets, widespread in Africa, southern Europe, and southern Asia.[1] During mating season males make a sound created by vibrating the last two joints of their maxillary palpi. This is either to attract females for mating or to drive off other males.[2]
