Local prothoracic auditory neurons in Ensifera [PDF]
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2022 A new method for individually staining insect neurons with metal ions was described in the late 60s, closely followed by the introduction of the first bright fluorescent dye, Lucifer Yellow, for the same purpose. These milestones enabled an unprecedented

The Role of Feeding Characteristics in Shaping Gut Microbiota Composition and Function of Ensifera (Orthoptera) [PDF]
Insects, 2022 Feeding habits were the primary factor affecting the gut bacterial communities in Ensifera. However, the interaction mechanism between the gut microbiota and feeding characteristics is not precisely understood.

The Evolutionary Patterns of Genome Size in Ensifera (Insecta: Orthoptera) [PDF]
Frontiers in Genetics, 2021 Genomic size variation has long been a focus for biologists. However, due to the lack of genome size data, the mechanisms behind this variation and the biological significance of insect genome size are rarely studied systematically. The detailed taxonomy

New estimates of genome size in Orthoptera and their evolutionary implications. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2023 Animal genomes vary widely in size, and much of their architecture and content remains poorly understood. Even among related groups, such as orders of insects, genomes may vary in size by orders of magnitude-for reasons unknown.

Paleocene of Menat Formation, France, reveals an extraordinary diversity of orthopterans and the last known survivor of a Mesozoic Elcanidae [PDF]
Acta Palaeontologica Polonica, 2020 The orthopteran fauna of the Paleocene of Menat Formation (France) is revised. It comprises at least 12 species in the following clades: Grylloidea (an undescribed species, Menatgryllus longixiphus gen. et sp.

Molecular evidence for high frequency of multiple paternity in a freshwater shrimp species Caridina ensifera. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 Molecular genetic analyses of parentage provide insights into mating systems. Although there are 22,000 members in Malacostraca, not much has been known about mating systems in Malacostraca.
