Transcriptomic data reveals nuclear-mitochondrial discordance in Gomphocerinae grasshoppers (Insecta: Orthoptera: Acrididae) [PDF]

Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 2022
The phylogeny of many groups of Orthoptera remains poorly understood. Previous phylogenetic studies largely restricted to few mitochondrial markers found many species in the grasshopper subfamily Gomphocerinae to be para- or polyphyletic, presumably because of incomplete lineage sorting and ongoing hybridization between putatively young lineages ...

Acridomorpha (Orthoptera) species associated with the protected wetlands of Santa Lucía, Montevideo, Uruguay [PDF]

Check List, 2020
The diversity of Acridomorpha in protected areas of Uruguay has been little studied to date. In the protected wetlands of Humedales de Santa Lucía in the Montevideo Department, we made monthly surveys from December 2012 to March 2013. Sampling

Sexual selection and predation drive the repeated evolution of stridulation in Heteroptera and other arthropods

Biological Reviews, Volume 98, Issue 3, Page 942-981, June 2023., 2023
ABSTRACT Acoustic and substrate‐borne vibrations are among the most widely used signalling modalities in animals. Arthropods display a staggering diversity of vibroacoustic organs generating acoustic sound and/or substrate‐borne vibrations, and are fundamental to our broader understanding of the evolution of animal signalling.

Phylogenetic relatedness of food plants reveals highest insect herbivore specialization at intermediate temperatures along a broad climatic gradient

Global Change Biology, Volume 28, Issue 13, Page 4027-4040, July 2022., 2022
The specialization of phytophagous insects changes along climatic gradients, but empirical evidence of how the phylogeny and availability of resources modulate herbivore specialization is scarce. We surveyed plant and orthopteran assemblages on 41 grasslands and reconstructed dietary relationships using metabarcoding of fecal samples and feeding ...

Trade‐off between flight capability and reproduction in Acridoidea (Insecta: Orthoptera)

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 11, Issue 23, Page 16849-16861, December 2021., 2021
Flight‐capable individuals (long‐winged) of Acridoidea expend energy developing and maintaining the flight apparatus at the expense of reproduction. Flight‐incapable individuals (short‐winged or wingless) cannot fly, but has a greater reproductive output.

The grasshoppers (Orthoptera: Caelifera) of the grasslands in the southern portion of the Espinhaço Range, Minas Gerais, Brazil [PDF]

Check List, 2017
Neotropical mountains host much of the Earth’s biodiversity. The Espinhaço Range of Brazil consists of a fragmented series of low-altitude mountains with extensive areas of grasslands.

Cytogenomic analysis unveils mixed molecular evolution and recurrent chromosomal rearrangements shaping the multigene families on Schistocerca grasshopper genomes

Evolution, Volume 75, Issue 8, Page 2027-2041, August 2021., 2021
Abstract Multigene families are essential components of eukaryotic genomes and play key roles either structurally and functionally. Their modes of evolution remain elusive even in the era of genomics, because multiple multigene family sequences coexist in genomes, particularly in large repetitive genomes. Here, we investigate how the multigene families

To the knowledge of rare species of Acrididae from Protected Areas in North-Western Russia: Chorthippus brunneus brevis (Orthoptera, Acrididae)

Nature Conservation Research: Заповедная наука, 2017
The presence of the grasshopper Chorthippus brunneus brevis (Orthoptera, Acrididae, Gomphocerinae) has been confirmed for the Vyborg district mainland of the Leningrad region, Russia, for the first time since 1908.
