Response of Orthoptera to clear-cuts in beech forests

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2013
Various disturbances in forests often result in the formation of open habitats with characteristics that are distinctly different from those of the original forest (microclimate, illumination, stand age and composition).

Niche packing, but not niche expansion, explains the co‐occurrence of hummingbirds‐visited plants

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2025, Issue 6, June 2025.
Tropical mountains often harbour high species richness. Yet the mechanisms behind such high richness remain poorly understood. One prominent hypothesis for high species richness is niche partitioning, which reduces competition and promotes coexistence.

A-type allatostatins and sulfakinins as satiety effectors in the Mediterranean field cricket Gryllus bimaculatus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Allatostatine (AS) und Sulfakinine (SK) sind Neuropeptidhormone, die aus mehreren Insektenarten isoliert und analysiert wurden. Die AS können durch strukturelle Merkmale in drei Typen eingeteilt werden, wobei die Peptide des A Typs durch das C-terminale ...

Differential effect of grassland mowing on arthropod taxa

open access: yesEcological Entomology, Volume 50, Issue 2, Page 288-298, April 2025.
First, we discovered that mowing had a negative effect on overall arthropod abundance in all four of our studies. Second, our four studies found that seven taxa showed only negative, four only positive, and four mixed positive and negative responses. Third, regarding taxonomic resolution, no third‐level taxon (i.e.

Evolution of acoustic communication in crickets: phylogeny of Eneopterinae reveals an adaptive radiation involving high-frequency calling (Orthoptera, Grylloidea, Eneopteridae)

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2004
Evolution of dominant frequencies in songs of Eneopterinae crickets was studied with respect to phylogeny. Two characters are optimized on the tree: the first describes the frequency resulting from the vibration of the harp (Fda), and the second is due ...

Review of Dysmorphoptilidae Handlirsch (Hemiptera: Cicadomorpha) from the Argentinean Triassic, with description of a new subfamily, and a new species [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
This contribution presents new fossil insect taxa of the order Hemiptera (Cicadomorpha, Dysmorphoptilidae, Gallegomorphoptilinae subfam. n.) from the Ischichuca Formation (late Middle Triassic to early Late Triassic) from La Rioja Province (Argentina ...

Increased copulation duration before ejaculate transfer is associated with larger spermatophores, and male genital titillators, across bushcricket taxa [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Copulation duration varies considerably across species, but few comparative studies have examined factors that might underlie such variation. We examined the relationship between copulation duration (prior to spermatophore transfer), the complexity of ...
