Abstract

High-frequency sound at an intensity of 90 decibels was tested on males of the American cockroach, Periplaneta americana (L.). The insect's behavioral pattern (antennal movement, locomotion, grooming, and cleaning of the antennae) under the influence of high-frequency sounds did not show significant differences from normal. This technique can, therefore, be employed in studying the motor activity of male P. americana under different conditions.
