A New Species of Insect Possibly Invasive for Ornamental Plants in Romania
Following the periodic evaluations carried out in the parks of Timisoara (Timis, Romania) which had as main activity the monitoring of harmful insect species, we noticed an interesting species with the ability to jump, which attracted our attention.

Does habitat matter in avoiding predators among sympatric Katydid species?
Natural selection, through eavesdropping predators, plays a crucial role in shaping katydid behavior. Predators use the conspicuous katydid calls for prey localization. While commonly deployed defenses are known for many katydids, the possible effects of

Evaluating Multiple Arthropod Taxa as Indicators of Invertebrate Diversity in Old Fields [PDF]
Biodiversity, often quantified by species richness, is commonly used to evaluate and monitor the health of ecosystems and as a tool for conservation planning. The use of one or more focal taxa as surrogates or indicators of larger taxonomic diversity can

A Katydid's Resourcefulness [PDF]
DURING the past summer an intimate friend of the writer's observed a peculiar case analogous to the Irishman's “spitting on his hands for a fresh hold.” An ordinary katydid, in trying to climb along the slats of a window blind that were very smooth owing to the glazed surface of the paint, kept slipping on the smooth surface.

Structural biomechanics determine spectral purity of bush-cricket calls [PDF]
Bush-crickets (Orthoptera: Tettigoniidae) generate sound using tegminal stridulation. Signalling effectiveness is affected by the widely varying acoustic parameters of temporal pattern, frequency and spectral purity (tonality).

When the same complex trait is exhibited by closely related species, a single evolutionary origin is frequently invoked. The complex stridulatory apparatus present in the forewings of extant crickets, mole crickets, katydids, and prophalangopsids, is ...
