Losers, winners, and opportunists: How grassland land‐use intensity affects orthopteran communities

Ecosphere, Volume 7, Issue 11, November 2016., 2016
Abstract Land use and corresponding habitat loss are major drivers of local species extinctions. Orthoptera as important grassland herbivores showed different responses to land‐use intensity in different studies, and the susceptibility of this group remains unclear.

DNA Barcoding of Pygmy Hoppers—The First Comprehensive Overview of the BOLD Systems’ Data Shows Promise for Species Identification

Diversity, 2023
The COI gene is widely used as a DNA barcode in animals that can assist in the identification of species. One of the widely used aggregators of DNA barcodes is the Barcode of Life Data System (BOLD Systems), which contains around 2500 sequences of ...

Transect walks and malaise traps differ in temperature sensitivity but reveal consistent drivers of pollinator richness Transektläufe und Malaisefallen unterscheiden sich in ihrer Temperaturempfindlichkeit, zeigen jedoch konsistente Treiber der Artenvielfalt von Bestäubern

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 743-757, September 2024.
For pollinators, transect walks and malaise traps detected a similarly high species richness, but transect walks revealed more species per site, especially in higher elevations and under low temperatures. For grasshoppers, transect walks appear to be more suitable to assess species richness, as considerably more species can be monitored and reliably ...

Mapping wing morphs of Tetrix subulata using citizen science data: Flightless groundhoppers are more prevalent in grasslands near water

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 17, Issue 4, Page 632-641, July 2024.
We show that citizen science data, obtained through GBIF, are suitable for analyses of spatial distribution of morphological types within species like the slender groundhopper T. subulata. Wing morph (long or short) was determined based on photographs accompanying observations, and wing‐morph patterns were related to large‐ and medium‐scale landscape ...

Ecology and abundance of a relict population of the bush cricket Saga pedo in the Northern Apennines, Italy

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2024.
Our study reveals that the expansion of forest cover and intensification of agriculture have led to the decline of Saga pedo, a species currently listed as Vulnerable. The population of Saga pedo in the study area is estimated to be 197 individuals, but detection is challenging due to the species' elusive behavior and the impact of environmental ...

Pygmy grasshoppers (Orthoptera, Tetrigidae) of Kole wetlands, a Ramsar site in Kerala, India [PDF]

Journal of Orthoptera Research
The Kole wetlands of Kerala is a unique wetland ecosystem, a designated Ramsar site and a high-value biodiversity area, yet its insect fauna has not been thoroughly studied.

Leveraging historical field notebooks to uncover continental‐scale patterns in the diversity of Australian grasshoppers

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 17, Issue 3, Page 488-500, May 2024.
Grasshopper species composition was distinct in the south‐west, and north, and uniform in the interior. Species richness was highest in the interior and north, and lowest in the south‐west. The patterns of grasshopper species diversity and endemism were like patterns previously reported for lizards reflecting their common independence from water and ...

Lophotettix verhaaghi (Orthoptera, Tetrigidae), a new species of pygmy grasshoppers from Peru with a 3D scan of the holotype [PDF]

Contributions to Entomology
The genus Lophotettix Hancock, 1909 belongs to a small subfamily of Tetrigidae, Lophotettiginae Hancock, 1909. To date, it included six species that are rarely observed and lack reliable distribution data.

Functional traits drive the fate of Orthoptera in urban areas

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 17, Issue 2, Page 304-311, March 2024.
We investigated the changes in orthopteran assemblage composition in the city of Rome, Italy, in the last three decades, testing the role of ecological, morphological and physiological traits in influencing species' local extinction in the urban environment.
