Monoamine-sensitive adenylate cyclase in the nervous system of the locust schistocerca gregaria [PDF]
The observation that dopamine, octopamine and serotonin represent the major monoamines present in insect nervous tissue has led to speculation about their role. For the monoamines to act as neurotransmitters, receptors should exist. Moreover, if chemical

On the historical biogeography of the Desert locust, Schistocerca gregaria
The desert locust, Schistocerca gregaria, is found in disjunct Southern and Northern areas of Africa. While the subspecies S. g. gregaria is a feared agricultural pest since early civilization, with plagues documented from West Africa to Southwest Asia ...
