"Our study of vibrational communication is in its infancy, but the glimpse we have of the mechanisms employed leads us to believe that this is a very ancient system, that it is perhaps the primary channel of communication in some animal groups, and that it is ubiquitous, at least in vertebrates and arthropods."
