Plot of vocalization patterns for 35 trials. (A) Vocalization rasters. Time t=0 is either capture point, or mantis dive point. Pink shading demarcates strobe groups. (B,C) Mean (line) and standard deviation (shaded area) of PRR for the four categories of trials. In 18 of these trials the mantis did not dive and was caught by the bat (`no-dives' or `captures'). In the other 17 trials the mantis dived in response to the bat vocalizations (`dives') and evaded capture. `Aborts' are trials where the bat cut off its buzz abruptly just after the dive. `Follows' are trials where the bat continued its high repetition rate phase even after the mantis dive. `Others' are trials where the mantis dived while the bat was not producing pulses at a high repetition rate.
