_d._ The organs of hearing
Although it has been denied by Forel that insects have the sense of
hearing, yet the majority of writers and experimenters agree that
insects are not deaf. On general grounds if, as we know, many insects
produce sounds, it must follow that they have ears to hear, for there is
every reason to suppose that the sounds thus made are, as in other
animals, either for attracting the sexes, for a means of communication,
or to express the emotions. We will begin by briefly describing the
structures now generally supposed to be auditory in function, and about
which there can be no reasonable doubt, and then consider the more
problematical organs, closing with an account of the extremely various
means of producing sounds and cries.
