The genus Ectadia (Orthoptera: Phaneropteridae: Phaneropterinae) in East Asia: description of a new species, comparison of its complex song and duetting behavior with that of E. fulva and notes on the biology of E. fulva [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Orthoptera Research, 2017
The genus Ectadia is an East Asian genus of the tribe Elimaeini (Phaneropterinae) and is known for the complex stridulatory files of its members. The calling song was so far known from only one species, the relatively widespread Ectadia fulva. Here a new

Micro‐ and macroclimate interactively shape diversity, niches and traits of Orthoptera communities along elevational gradients

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 30, Issue 5, May 2024.
Abstract Aim Temperature is one of the main drivers shaping species diversity and assembly processes. Yet, site‐specific effects of the local microclimate on species and trait compositions of insect communities have rarely been assessed along macroclimatic temperature clines. Location Bavarian Alps, Germany.

Understudied regions and messy taxonomy: Geography, not taxonomy, is the best predictor for genetic divergence of the Poecilimon bosphoricus species group

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 49, Issue 2, Page 221-236, April 2024.
Divergence in morphology and communication signals does not correspond to genetic divergence in the Poecilimon bosphoricus species group, suggesting phenotypes may be unreliable for defining reproductive units. Pleistocene climatic/ecological shifts affected the genetic differentiation of P.

Effect of colour vision status on insect prey capture efficiency of captive and wild tamarins (Saguinus spp.) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The colour vision polymorphism of most New World primates is a model system to study the function of colour vision. Theories for the evolution of primate trichromacy focus on the efficient detection and selection of ripe fruits and young leaves amongst ...

Silk Investment in Gifts By Males of the Nuptial Feeding Spider Pisaura Mirabilis (Araneae: Pisauridae). [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
Adult males of the hunting spider Pisaura mirabilis wrap up prey with silk and pass these nuptial gifts to females prior to copulation. The females digest the nuptial gifts, including the silk, during mating.

The complex tibial organ of the New Zealand ground weta: sensory adaptations for vibrational signal detection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In orthopteran insects, a complex tibial organ has evolved to detect substrate vibrations and/or airborne sound. Species of New Zealand weta (Anostostomatidae) with tympanal ears on the foreleg tibia use this organ to communicate by sound, while in ...
