crypsis
Examples
“Earless ghost swift moths become⟳ “invisible” to echolocating bats by forming mating clusters close⟳[…]above vegetation and effectively blending into the clutter of echoes that the bat receives from the leaves and stems around them. Many insects probably use⟳ this strategy, which is a close⟳ analogy to crypsis in the visible world—camouflage and other methods for blending into one’s visual background.”
