Phase-dependent morphometric traits of the albino strain of Schistocerca gregaria (Orthoptera: Acrididae) [PDF]
Journal of Orthoptera Research, 2017 Sugahara et al. (2017) reported that unlike the wild type, the albino strain of Schistocerca gregaria does not show phase-dependent shift in the morphometric ratio of F/C (= length of the hind femur/maximum width of the head [caput]). In contrast, my old,

Exploring the relationship between tychoparthenogenesis and inbreeding depression in the Desert Locust, Schistocerca gregaria [PDF]
, 2017 Tychoparthenogenesis, a form of asexual reproduction in which a small proportion of unfertilized eggs can hatch spontaneously, could be an intermediate evolutionary link in the transition from sexual to parthenogenetic reproduction.

Cellulolytic Bacillus species isolated from the gut of the desert locust Schistocerca gregaria
Scientific African, 2021 The ability of many insects to thrive on wood, foliage, and detritus has stimulated an interest on the potential use of gut microbial flora of such species as a bioresource for industrial conversion of cheap cellulosic material into bioproducts.

Band movement and thermoregulation in Schistocerca cancellata
Journal of Insect Physiology, 2022 At high density, juvenile locusts create marching hopper bands. Understanding the roles of temperature and vegetation on the movement of these bands shall allow to better forecast and control them. Following a hopper band in North Argentina in November 2019, we explored the thermoregulation behaviours of the South American locust, Schistocerca ...

The head direction circuit of two insect species
eLife, 2020 Recent studies of the Central Complex in the brain of the fruit fly have identified neurons with activity that tracks the animal’s heading direction. These neurons are part of a neuronal circuit with dynamics resembling those of a ring attractor.
