Abstract
In the darkness of the subterranean ecotope, hearing seems to be predestined to counterbalance the visual restrictions similar to the situation familiar in cave dwellers like bats. It is therefore generally assumed that audition and acoustic signals play a major role in communication and alertness of subterranean mammals, and it is not surprising that studies on sensory ecology of subterranean species are biased toward hearing and vocalisations.
