It had been previously reported from Iran, the Caucasus, Asia Minor and from the Mediterranean island Sicily. We recorded and analysed the song of this species. Its continuous song is similar to other Cicadatra species with the main frequency range between 6 and 12 kHz. The courtship song, often sung in metachronous (nearly simultaneous) manner with the neighboring males, consists of 5-7 s long repeated phrases, each composed of a long series (N = 59 +- 14) of wing clicks (rep. frequency about 11 Hz) produced during wing flipping, interrupted once in a phrase by a short 0.19 s tymbal echeme. A similar combination of two independent sound producing mechanisms has also been described in the courtship songs of some other Cicadatra species, and in several other genera in other parts of the worldŠkržate vrste Cicadatra persica Kirkaldy, 1909, smo našli v Makedoniji, v dolini Radike in Garske reke (UTM kvadrati DL79 in DM61), kar je prva najdba v Makedoniji in na Blakanu. Ta vrsta je sicer razširjena v Iranu, na Kavkazu, v Mali Aziji, Siriji, Izraelu in na Siciliji. Posneli smo napeve te vrste in jih analizirali. Neprekinjeni napev je podoben kot pri drugih vrstah rodu Cicadatra in obsega fekvenčni pas od 6 do 12 kHz. Napev dvorjenja, pri katerem pojejo sosednji samci pogosto skraj sočasno z majhnim zamikom, sestoji iz ponavljajočih se fraz dolžine okoli 5 do 7 s. Vsaka fraza sestoji iz serije hitro ponavljajočih se pokov (N = 59+-14, ponavljalna frekvenca okoli 11 Hz), ki verjetno nastanejo ob udarjanju s krili ob telo, in enega timbalnega ehema dolžine približno 0,19 s. Podobna kombinacija dveh načinov oglašanja je znana tudi pri napevih dvorjenja nekaterih drugih vrst rodu Cicadatra in pri nekaterih drugih rodovih škržatov iz drugih delov svetaTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaPrirodoslovni muzej Slovenije
