A History of the Study of Echolocation,ivity tied to technological advances and to new young investigators and new labs joining the search for answers to how bats (and now toothed whales) echolocate. The ensuing chapters in this volume bring the field up to date, but we realize that this is still only a middle stage in what seems to be a

Phylogeny, Genes, and Hearing: Implications for the Evolution of Echolocation in Bats,t is currently known about the molecular basis of echolocation is detailed and the future steps required to link this trait with its genomic bases are explored. It is often argued that the evolution of one specialization will have consequences for other traits, and, in the case of echolocation, a “t

Roles of Acoustic Social Communication in the Lives of Bats,cked or threatened. While echolocation calls have been considered separate from social calls, signals used in orientation also encode information about the transmitter that is readily available to other individuals. Bats often are particularly attracted to the feeding buzzes of conspecifics, which a

To close the loop between neural processing mechanisms and perception, electrophysiological findings are related to the behavioral performance of bats in psychophysical tasks.

The Neural Processing of Frequency Modulations in the Auditory System of Bats, at least, this correspondence suggests that IC neurons are specifically encoding features of these signals through the neural computations that generate FM selectivity. Moreover, the various selectivities expressed by IC neurons for communication calls are a consequence of the multiple ways in whic
