        Male crickets (Order Orthoptera), producing sound for courting females and threatening other males, were chosen to perform researches for the better understanding of the microstructures of sound producing organs. It is known that cricket only makes sound for mating-related events. In this research, two patterns out chirping patterns were observed and analyzed. Each chirp was made of several nodes of waves, each node indicates a movement of wings – friction caused by file and plectrum located on wings. Although both wings possess file and plectrum, only the file on right wing and plectrum on left wing are used to produce sound. Each file consists of 126 teeth, where plectrum gets hooked. The teeth located on file have consistent gap between each other, proportional to the wave nodes acquired – except that the gap in the second region among equally divided six regions were shorter. In case of the usage of file, a cricket mostly uses second region to fifth region, since the teeth in first and sixth region are smaller. Since most of the researches made are mainly focused on the correlation between sound production and behavioral pattern, the current research project aims to reveal and provide thorough understanding on the sound producing organs of cricket, to suggest possible biomimetic applications in our daily lives.
