Studies in Australian Tettigoniidae : The Phyllophorinae ( Orthoptera : Tettigoniidae ; Phyllophorinae )
نویسنده
چکیده
A survey of Australian Phyllophorinae is presented. The entire fauna is represented by two species in two genera. Siliquofera grandis Blanchard, a species widely distributed in Papua New Guinea, is recorded from Iron Range, Queensland. Phyllophorella queenslandica Rentz, Su, Ueshima sp. nov. is described from Kuranda, Queensland and recorded from several localities on the Cape York peninsula. The unusual habits of the subfamily are discussed and the equally unusual karyotype of Phyllophorella queenslandica Rentz, Su, Ueshima sp. nov. is presented.

A century of paraphyly: a molecular phylogeny of katydids (Orthoptera: Tettigoniidae) supports multiple origins of leaf-like wings.
The phylogenetic relationships of Tettigoniidae (katydids and bush-crickets) were inferred using molecular sequence data. Six genes (18S rDNA, 28S rDNA, Cytochrome Oxidase II, Histone 3, Tubulin Alpha I, and Wingless) were sequenced for 135 ingroup taxa representing 16 of the 19 extant katydid subfamilies. Five subfamilies (Tettigoniinae, Pseudophyllinae, Mecopodinae, Meconematinae, and Listros...
