Bug Has Loud Penis

“A tiny water boatman is the loudest animal on Earth relative to its body size, a study has revealed. Scientists from France and Scotland recorded the aquatic animal “singing” at up to 99.2 decibels, the equivalent of listening to a loud orchestra play while sitting in the front row. The insect makes the sound by rubbing its penis against its abdomen in a process known as ‘stridulation’. Researchers say the song is a courtship display performed to attract a mate.” There is audio, if you are so inclined.
