Povzetek: Freshwater ecosystems are full of underwater sounds produced by amphibians, aquatic arthropods, reptiles, plants, fishes, and methane bubbles escaping from the sediment. Although much headway has been made in recent years investigating the overall soundscapes of various freshwater ecosystems around the world, there remains a significant knowledge gap in our collective inability to accurately and reliably link recorded sounds with the species that produced them. Here, we present The Freshwater Sounds Archive, a new global initiative, which seeks to address this knowledge gap by collating species-specific freshwater sound recordings into a publicly available database. By means of metadata collection, we also present a snapshot of the species studied, the recording equipment, and recording parameters used by freshwater ecoacousticians globally. In total, 61 entries were submitted to the archive between the 4th of March 2023 and the 30th of April 2025, representing 16 countries and 6 continents. The most numerous taxonomic group was arthropods (29 entries), followed by fishes (14 entries), amphibians (10 entries), macrophytes (7 entries), and a freshwater mollusk (1 entry). The majority of the submissions were from European countries (27 entries), of which the United Kingdom was the most represented with 14 entries. The next most represented region was North America (11 entries), followed by South America (8 entries), Oceania and Asia (5 entries each), Africa (3 entries), and the Middle East and Central America with 1 entry each. The global south, polar regions, and areas with an elevation >500 m (asl) were underrepresented. The field of freshwater ecoacoustics to date has largely focused on the analysis of ‘sound types’ due to a current lack of knowledge of species-specific sounds. The Freshwater Sounds Archive presents an opportunity to move beyond the ‘sound type’ approach, and towards an approach with higher taxonomic resolution, ultimately resulting in species-specific descriptions. Furthermore, The Freshwater Sounds Archive will provide freshwater ecoacousticians with one of the main tools required to start creating annotated training datasets for machine learning models from soundscape recordings by referring to known species sounds present in the archive. In the long-term, this will result in the automatic detection and classification of species-specific freshwater sounds from soundscape recordings, such as indicator, invasive, and endangered species.

Povzetek: Prispevek predstavi zgodovino in razvoj revije Natura Sloveniaev 25 letih izhajanja, od 1999 do 2023. Izpostavljeni so začetki revije, ozadje in namen revije ter kratka analiza števila prispevkov, avtorjev in taksonomskih skupin, ki jih prispevki naslavljajo, vključno s pregledom odmevnosti izbranih prispevkov. V 25-letih je bilo v reviji objavljenih 286 prispevkov, ki jih je pripravilo 320avtorjev. Prispevki se osredotočajo na območje Slovenije in največkrat predstavljajo razširjenost vrst, objavljeni pa so tudi zapisi za druga območja iz osrednje in jugovzhodne Evrope, ki obravnavajo širše tematike povezane z ekologijo in naravovarstvom. Visoko citiranost in znanstveno odmevnost dosegajo zlasti prispevki, ki predstavljajo nacionalne sezname vrst ali poročajo o novih ali prvih opažanjih vrst v državi. Velika večina prispevkov je osredotočena na posamezne taksone, najpogosteje žuželke z redovoma metuljev in kačjih pastirjev. V 25. letu izhajanja prehaja revija v so-izdajanju Biotehniške fakultete Univerze v Ljubljani in Nacionalnega inštituta za biologijo v okvir Založbe Univerze v Ljubljani in prične uporabljati nov portal za oddajo in obravnavo rokopisov. V tem letu tudi prvič izide tretja, tematska številka revije. Po četrt stoletja rednega izhajanja zaseda Natura Sloveniae pomembno mesto v slovenski znanstveni periodiki s področja biologije in nadaljuje svoje poslanstvo objavljanja izvirnih znanstvenih prispevkov s področja favnističnih, florističnih, biogeografskih, biodiverzitetnih in ekoloških raziskav v osrednji in jugovzhodni Evropi, ter vzpodbujanja mladih piscev k objavi svojih terenskih opažanj.

Povzetek: Insects rely on substrate vibrations in numerous intra- and interspecific interactions. Yet, our knowledge of noise impact in this modality lags behind that in audition, limiting our understanding of how anthropogenic noise affects insect communities. Auditory research has linked impaired signal perception in noise (i.e., masking) to spectral overlap. We investigated the impact of noise with different spectral compositions on the vibrational communication of the stink bug Nezara viridula, examining courtship behaviour and signal representation by sensory neurons. We found negative effects of vibrational noise regardless of spectral overlap, challenging common expectations. Noise impaired the ability of males to recognize the female signal and localise its source: overlapping noise decreased sensitivity of receptor neurons to the signal and disrupted signal frequency encoding by phase-locking units, while non-overlapping noise only affected frequency encoding. Modelling neuronal spike triggering in sensory neurons linked disrupted frequency encoding to interference-induced alterations of the signal waveform. These alterations also affected time delays between signal arrivals to different legs, crucial for localisation. Our study thus unveils a new masking mechanism, potentially unique to insect vibrosensory systems. The findings highlight the higher vulnerability of vibration-mediated behaviour to noise, with implications for insect interactions in natural and anthropogenically altered environments.
