A genome survey of Tetrix japonica (Insecta, Orthoptera) reveals a comparatively small Tetrigidae genome [PDF]

ZooKeys
The pygmy grasshopper, Tetrix japonica, is a common insect widely distributed in eastern Asia. To further investigate its genome characteristics, high-throughput sequencing was used to obtain genome survey data based on Illumina platforms.

Complete mitochondrial genomes and phylogenetic relationships of two Saussurella species (Orthoptera: Tetrigidae) from China [PDF]

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources
The complete mitochondrial genomes of Saussurella cornuta (Haan, 1843) and Saussurella longiptera (Yin, 1984) were sequenced and analyzed. The circular mitogenomes of S. cornuta and S. longiptera are 16,531 bp and 16,313 bp in length, respectively.

Multi-Locus Nuclear Marker Assessment of Genetic Diversity in Swiss Orthoptera Unveils Conservation Status Limitations. [PDF]

Mol Ecol
ABSTRACT With accelerating biodiversity loss, tracking both inter‐ and intraspecific diversity is critical, as within‐species variation underpins population viability and adaptive potential. We developed a new multi‐locus framework, and obtained an Orthoptera‐specific marker panel targeting 398 nuclear loci plus the mitogenome and ribosomal DNA to ...

Discovering insect species based on photographs only: The case of a nameless species of the genus Scaria (Orthoptera: Tetrigidae) [PDF]

Journal of Orthoptera Research, 2021
A heated debate on whether a new species should be described without a physical specimen, i.e., by designating a photographed specimen to serve as a holotype, has been ongoing for a long time. Herewith, without nomenclatural actions, a new species of the

Biology of Tetrix bolivari (Orthoptera: Tetrigidae)

Open Life Sciences, 2011
Abstract The ecological requirements and biology of the Tetrigidae are almost unknown. The aim of the present work is to contribute to the knowledge of Tetrix bolivari, one of the least studied species of European Tetrigidae, by investigating its seasonal and daily activity, food biology, and vibratory communication.
