Large-scale bioacoustic monitoring to elucidate the distribution of a non-native katydid

For animals that produce species-specific audible sounds, environmental recordings combined with automated acoustic monitoring software (passive acoustic monitoring, PAM) may be an effective monitoring tool because it allows audio data from many, widely distributed autonomous recording units (ARUs) to be processed in a relatively short period of time. Males of many insect species produce loud, species-specific mating songs, yet acoustic insects have received less attention from PAM relative to vertebrates.
We evaluated the use of PAM to monitor, Roeseliana roeselii (Orthoptera, Tettigoniidae), an acoustic insect that has expanded its range to Alberta, Canada far outside its naturalized North American range. We analyzed environmental recordings from ARUs: 1) at two control sites known to be occupied by R. roeselii, and 2) across Alberta established by the Alberta Biodiversity Monitoring Institute (ABMI) to search for new populations.
PAM successfully detected R. roeselii at the two contr..., , , # Bioacoustic monitoring for Roeseliana roeselii using recognizers from the Alberta Bioacoustic Monitoring Institute

The dataset contains 3 CSV files that include an overview of ABMI recorders that were analysed (Recognizer\_data\_DRYAD\_Recorder\_Overview.csv), every individual hit from the recognizer for the ABMI environmental recorders (Recognizer\_data\_DRYAD\_ABMI\_Hits.csv),
and every individual hit taken from the control (Recognizer\_data\_DRYAD\_Control\_Hits.csv).

The Recognizer_data_DRYAD_Recorder_Overview.csv file is a summary of the number of hits collected at each environmental recording.
