Characterization of the complete mitochondrial genome of Ergatettix serrifemora (Orthoptera: Tetrigidae) from China and its phylogenetic analysis [PDF]
The mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of the Ergatettix serrifemora (Orthoptera: Tetrigidae: Tetriginae) was sequenced and annotated. The assembled mitochondrial genome was 14,947 bp, containing 45.8% of A, 15.7% of C, 9.6% of G and 28.9% of T ...

The story of the Malagasy devils (Orthoptera, Tetrigidae): Holocerus lucifer in the north and H. devriesei sp. nov. in the south? [PDF]
Madagascar is home to some of the largest and most colorful pygmy grasshoppers (Tetrigidae) in the world, known as ‘Malagasy Metrodorinae’. Among them, Devil’s pygmy grasshoppers (genus Holocerus Bolívar, 1887) are unique in having two long spines on the

Replicated Differential Expression Analysis in a Green-Brown Polymorphic Grasshopper Reveals Role of Beta-Carotene-Binding Protein in Body Coloration. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Orthoptera provide a well‐documented case of transspecies colour polymorphism, with green and brown morphs coexisting in many species. This colour polymorphism is likely under long‐term balancing selection, but the genetic and molecular mechanisms underlying the variation remain poorly understood.

Lepocranus and Valalyllum gen. nov. (Orthoptera, Tetrigidae, Cladonotinae), endangered Malagasy dead-leaf-like grasshoppers [PDF]
Only two leaf-like pygmy grasshopper species and specimens are known from Madagascar: the Leatherback Pygmy Grasshopper (Lepocranus fuscus Devriese, 1991) —which has a relatively low median carina of the pronotum; and the Malagasy Litterhopper ...

First mitogenomic characterization of Macromotettixoides (Orthoptera, Tetrigidae), with the descriptions of two new species [PDF]
Classification of species is commonly based on morphological, molecular, and distribution depending on the taxa. Macromotettixoides Zheng, Wei & Jiang, 2005 and Formosatettix Tinkham, 1937 are both wingless types of Tetrigidae with extremely ...

Two New Species of Tetrigidae (Orthoptera: Tetrigoidea: Tetrigidae) from Guangxi, China
In this paper, 2 new species, Macromotettix nanshana sp. nov. and Coptotettix guangxiensis sp. nov. of Tetrigidae (Orthoptera) are described from China. Type specimens were deposited at the Institute of Entomology, Sun Yat-sen University, and College of Life Sciences, Nanjing Normal University, China.

Dimorphism in wing length is well known in many insect species. It is generally believed that a trade-off between dispersal and reproduction exists, with the long-winged (LW) morph being a better disperser due to its superior flight capability. The short-
