Abstract: The sensitivity of Pardosa pseudoannulata to the sound and silence sources of Drosophila wings was compared in the laboratory. At close distances, the selection index of the P. pseudoannulata for the sound source was significantly higher than that for the silence source. However, when the distance was increased to 15 cm, no significant difference was found in the selection index. The residence time also showed a similar change. Within 12 cm, the residence time of the P. pseudoannulata on the sound source side was longer than 50% of the total observation time, and significantly higher than that on the silence side. As the distance increased, the sensitivity of the P. pseudoannulata to the sound decreased, and the residence time became insignificantly different. Therefore, the closer the distance to the sound source, the higher the sensitivity of P. pseudoannulata was to the sound. In addition, the distance between sound sources showed a clear correlation with the successful positioning of the prey. P. pseudoannulata can locate their prey by relying on hearing from a certain distance. Moreover, the gender of P. pseudoannulata is a factor in the sensitivity of the auditory sensor. Female P. pseudoannulata is more sensitive to the sound of Drosophila wings and exhibits a higher selection index.
