Daytime #moths reveal larger hearing organs, challenging evolutionary assumptions https://phys.org/news/2025-08-daytime-moths-reveal-larger-evolutionary.html paper: https://peerj.com/articles/19834/

"The results were unexpected and counterintuitive, as day-flying moths are not hunted by #bats... diurnal moths may use their enlarged ears to detect lower-frequency sounds produced by #birds or #reptiles. This points to a possible new function for tympanal organs and suggests a broader role for hearing in predator detection across different environments."
