Nontarget catches of traps with chemical lures may refer to the flower-visitation, probable pollination, and feeding of bush crickets (Ensifera: Tettigoniidae). [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2023 The flower visitation and host plant preference of seven temperate zone Tettigoniidae species were studied during the development of traps with chemical lures. Large numbers of Orthoptera were caught, providing an opportunity for analysis. Based on data from chemical lures and nature photos, the studied Orthoptera species mainly visit Asteraceae ...

Ontogeny of color development in two green-brown polymorphic grasshopper species. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2023 Ontogenetic development of two species of gomphocerine grasshoppers. Color morph differences develop early and remain stable for the rest of the insects life. Abstract Many insects, including several orthopterans, undergo dramatic changes in body coloration during ontogeny.

Ecosphere, Volume 14, Issue 12, December 2023., 2023 Abstract Tidal marsh insect communities are influenced by both salinity and aspects of vegetation texture (vegetation diversity, plant density, and architectural structure). These factors affect the abundances and intra‐ and interguild interactions of these insects and should result in broad‐scale variation in the distribution and ecological ...

Ecosphere, Volume 14, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023 Abstract Terminal channels were historically a common feature of tidal delta ecosystems but have become increasingly rare as landscapes have been modified. Tidal hydrodynamics are a defining feature in tidal terminal channel ecosystems from which native aquatic communities have evolved.

Advances in Agriculture, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023 The production of sustainable crops and environmental management in farming face several significant potential obstacles, including climate change, resource depletion and environmental degradation. Weeds and insect pests that considerably reduce yields have put crop production systems in danger.

The Singing Insects of Michigan [PDF]
, 2017 Excerpt: The so-called singing insects are all those that make loud, rhythmical noises. They include members of three groups of Orthoptera (Gryllidae, Tettigoniidae, and Acridoidea) and one family of Homoptera (Cicadidae).

Traditional grazing management creates heterogeneous swards and fosters grasshopper densities
Insect Science, Volume 29, Issue 6, Page 1805-1818, December 2022., 2022 Graphical Abstract Abstract Common pastures were once the dominant type of land use in many European regions. However, during the past 150 years, they have declined dramatically. Recent studies have shown that they are hotspots for rare plant, butterfly, and bird species in the study area, the Bavarian pre‐Alps (southern Germany).

Diverse ecological functions and the convergent evolution of grass awns
American Journal of Botany, Volume 109, Issue 9, Page 1331-1345, September 2022., 2022 Abstract The awn of grasses is a long, conspicuous outgrowth of the floral bracts in a grass spikelet. It is known to impact agricultural yield, but we know little about its broader ecological function, nor the selective forces that lead to its evolution. Grass awns are phenotypically diverse across the extant ~12,000 species of Poaceae. Awns have been

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 28, Issue 9, Page 1795-1809, September 2022., 2022 Abstract Aim Biodiversity loss is a major global challenge. While population trends of vertebrates are well documented, insect declines have not been sufficiently studied. We aim to identify changes in Orthoptera assemblages and the underlying drivers with a focus on land‐use and climate change. Location Central Europe.
