Motor state changes escape behavior of crickets
Summary: Animals change their behavior depending on external circumstances, internal factors, and their interactions. Locomotion state is a crucial internal factor that profoundly affects sensory perception and behavior.

The fauna of the subfamily Gryllinae in America is not very diverse and may be divided into three generic groups: (1) the endemic (for America and adjacent islands) subtribe Anurogryllina, (2) American branch of the subtribe Brachytrupina, (3) one genus (

Speciation, Divergence, and the Origin of Gryllus rubens: Behavior, Morphology, and Molecules
The last 25 years or so has seen a huge resurgence of interest in speciation research. This has coincided with the development and widespread use of new tools in molecular genetics, especially DNA sequencing, to inform ecological and evolutionary ...

Descending and Ascending Signals That Maintain Rhythmic Walking Pattern in Crickets
The cricket is one of the model animals used to investigate the neuronal mechanisms underlying adaptive locomotion. An intact cricket walks mostly with a tripod gait, similar to other insects.

Signaling Pathways for Long-Term Memory Formation in the Cricket
Unraveling the molecular mechanisms underlying memory formation in insects and a comparison with those of mammals will contribute to a further understanding of the evolution of higher-brain functions.

Mandible composition and properties in two selected praying mantises (Insecta, Mantodea)
Abstract Insects process their food with their cuticle‐based mouthparts. These feeding structures reflect their diversity and can, in some cases, showcase adaptations in material composition, mechanical properties, and shape to suit their specific dietary preferences.

Abstract The complex evolutionary history behind modern mammalian chewing performance and hearing function is a result of several changes in the entire skeletomuscular system of the skull and lower jaw. Lately, exciting multifunctional 3D analytical methods and kinematic simulations of feeding functions in both modern and fossil mammals and their ...
