Close encounters among flying locusts produce wing-beat coupling. Kutsch, W., Camhi, J., & Sumbre, G. Journal of Comparative Physiology A, 174(5):643-649, 5, 1994. ![Close encounters among flying locusts produce wing-beat coupling [link]](https://bibbase.org/img/filetypes/link.svg "link")
Website doi abstract bibtex 1 download Any flying animal leaves behind a wake of turbulent air. Thus, a closely tailing neighbor may be buffeted by complex aerodynamic forces. We report here that pairs of tethered locusts (Locusta migratoria) flying in tandem in a wind tunnel, couple their wing-beats to one another.Wind-receptive hairs on the rear partner's head provide the main sensory input that produces the coupling. The phase angle of coupling depends upon the distance between the individuals. By phase-coupling to a forward neighbor's wake, a locust may turn this turbulence to its own aerodynamic advantage. Moreover, within a large swarm local groups of locusts may fly in a functionally integrated manner.
