Abstract
Neuroscience![Figure][1] Female crickets need only five neurons to recognize male songs CREDIT: © LIFE ON WHITE / ALAMY STOCK PHOTO Sound patterns present a computational challenge in all animals that communicate by sound. Schoneich unraveled the processing of male calling songs by female crickets. A local network of only five neurons in the brains of the females forms an auditory feature detector circuit, with a response tuning that matches the selectivity of the female behavioral responses to the calls.
