Functional morphology of tegmina-based stridulation in the relict species Cyphoderris monstrosa (Orthoptera: Ensifera: Prophalangopsidae).
Male grigs, bush crickets and crickets produce mating calls by tegminal stridulation: the scraping together of modified forewings functioning as sound generators. Bush crickets (Tettigoniidae) and crickets (Gryllinae) diverged some 240 million years ago, with each lineage developing unique characteristics in wing morphology and the associated mechanics of stridulation. The grigs (Prophalangopsi...
متن کاملThe neuromuscular mechanism of stridulation in crickets (Orthoptera: Gryllidae).
Study of the insect neuromuscular system appears very promising as a means of explaining behaviour in terms of cellular operation. The relatively small number of neurons, the ganglionic nature of the nervous system, the simplicity of the neuromuscular arrangement, and the repetitiveness of behavioural sequences all lend themselves to a solution of this problem. As a result, an increasing number...
متن کاملNew data on taxonomy of recent Prophalangopsidae (Orthoptera: Hagloidea)
Keys to subfamilies, genera and species of the Prophalangopsidae are provided. Two new species Aboiloilomimus guizhouensis sp. n. and Aboiloimimus ornatus sp. n. are described respectively from Guizhou and Sichuan of China. The female of Prophalangopsis obscura is found for the first time from Tibet and is given a diagnosis. All type specimens examined in this study are deposited in Shanghai En...
متن کاملNew pseudophyllinae from the Lesser Antilles (Orthoptera: Ensifera: Tettigoniidae).
Two new Cocconitini Brunner von Wattenwyl, 1895 species belonging to Nesonotus Beier, 1960 are described from the Lesser Antilles: Nesonotus caeruloglobus Hugel, n. sp. from Dominica, and Nesonotus vulneratus Hugel, n. sp. from Martinique. The songs of both species are described and elements of biology are given. The taxonomic status of species close to Nesonotus tricornis (Thunberg, 1815) is d...
متن کاملFirst song descriptions of some Anatolian species of Tettigoniidae Krauss, 1902 (Orthoptera, Ensifera)
Fourteen endemic and two sub-endemic species belonging to three subfamilies of Tettigoniidae (Tettigoniinae, Bradyporinae and Saginae) were sampled during field trips throughout the different ranges of Anatolia between the years of 2004 and 2013. Acoustic parameters of these 16 species affiliated to 8 genera (Anterastes, Apholidoptera, Gampsocleis, Parapholidoptera, Pezodrymadusa, Psorodonotus,...
