Peptides in the Locusts, Locusta migratoria and Schistocerca gregaria

open access: yesPeptides, 1997
The first peptide identified in locusts was adipokinetic hormone I (AKH-I), a neurohormone mobilizing lipids from the fat body. No other locusts peptides were isolated until 1985. From then on peptide identification started to boom at such a tremendously fast rate that even specialists in the field could hardly keep track.

A Nemestrinid Parasite of Schistocerca gregaria (Forsk.)

Nature, 1948
DURING dissections of an immature male specimen of the desert locust, Schistocerca gregaria (Forskal), a yellowish larva of Nemestrinidae was found feeding on the testes and the surrounding adipose tissue. It was 1 cm. long. Its posterior end was surrounded by a chitinous cup leading to a slender respiratory tube c. 2 cm.

Immunocytochemistry of histamine in the brain of the locust Schistocerca gregaria

Cell and Tissue Research, 2004
Histamine serves a neurotransmitter role in arthropod photoreceptor neurons, but is also present in a small number of interneurons throughout the nervous system. In search of a suitable model system for the analysis of histaminergic neurotransmission in insects, we mapped the distribution of histamine in the brain of the desert locust Schistocerca ...

Ultrastructure of the malpighian tubules of Schistocerca gregaria

Journal of Morphology, 1988
AbstractThe ultrastructure of the Malpighian tubules of the adult desert locust, Schistocerca gregaria, is described. Male and female adults possess about 233 tubules, which empty proximally into the midgut‐ileal region of the alimentary canal by way of 12 ampullae. The tubules vary from 10 mm to 23 mm in length.

Allatectomy and sexual receptivity in females of Schistocerca gregaria

Journal of Insect Physiology, 1977
Abstract The removal of the corpora allata from immature females of Schistocerca gregaria causes the insects to enter a phase of permanent defence towards courting males. Operated control females copulate often, although they do not appear to show an active form of sexual display or attraction.

Zeitschrift f�r Zellforschung und Mikroskopische Anatomie, 1970
The tarsus of S. gregaria is divided into three units (here called segments) and an arolium set between a pair of claws. The first segment bears three pairs of pulvilli in the fore and middle legs, and one pair and two single pulvilli in the hind legs. Segment two bears a pair of pulvilli, segment three one long pulvillus and the arolium a similar pad ...

Monophagy in a polyphagous grasshopper, Schistocerca shoshone

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, 1994
AbstractThe feeding behavior of different populations of the grasshopper, Schistocerca shoshone, was investigated in the southwestern United States. Insects from three riparian populations, with a broad spectrum of plants available to them, tended to eat plants roughly in relation to their availability except that broad‐leaved herbaceous plants were ...
