Locust tympanal membrane moving at 3 kHz. Note the whole membrane moves as a travelling wave, originating in the thin membrane on the left and finishing in the thick membrane on the right. Measurements are in displacement (mm/s/Pa).
This research was published in the journal Proceedings of the Royal SOciety B in the paper: 'Listening to the environment: hearing differences from an epigenetic effect in solitarious and gregarious locusts' by Gordon et al.
