Newly hatched larvae face various physical and biological threats. To counter these, insects have evolved mechanisms to control hatching timing, ensuring larvae emerge at the 'right' time and often hatch synchronously. In some insects, embryo-to-embryo communication may facilitate synchronous hatching within an egg mass. Eggs in these species are typically in contact, allowing vibrational signals to transmit between them.
