General Review 88 PREFACE In 1942 I was invited by the University of Calcutta t,o deliver a course of two lectures under the Adharchandra Mookerjee (Endowment) Lectl\reship. These lectures are now published exactly in the form in which I delivered them in January, 1943, with the addition of the footnotes. The importance of the subject and the reason why I selected it have been explained at the commencement of Lecture I, and I shall consider my labours amply rewarded if these lectures promote a critical study of the history of the period. The short but tragic reigns of Sirajuddaula and his two successors constitute the most eventful period in the modern history of Bengal and, to use the words of Hallam, it is one ' which no Indian ever regards without interest and few without prejudice.' Time has come when we should study the history of this period in the light of contemporary records, without prejudice or passion of any kind.

Akhtar, M.K. Usmani, M.R. Nayeem Department of Zoology, Aligarh Muslim University, Aligarh- 202002, Uttar Pradesh, India *Corresponding author Md Humayoon Akhtar Email: Abstract: Grasshoppers of the subfamily Hemiacridinae are polyphagus cause heavy damage to our cash crops and play havoc with almost every type of vegetation. Hieroglyphus nigrorepletus is the pest of rice, millet, maize and sugarcane in India. Both macropterous and brachypterous forms of the species are found. Maximum number of the species has been recorded from the rice followed by maize, grass and least number of the grasshoppers collected from the pigeon pea and fodder sorghum. The macropterous form seems to be far less common than the brachypterous form. In both the forms female are larger than male, thus showing intraspecific variation in morphological characteristics. Keywords: Hemiacridinae, Brachypterous, macropterous, paddy, pest, Uttar Pradesh INTRODUCTION North- Himalayan region, Middle- Gangetic plains and Acridoidea is one of the most important South- Vindhyan hills and plateau. It shares Nepal and superfamily of sub order Caelifera and order Orthoptera Tibet in northeast, Himachal Pradesh in northwest, which comprises the family Acrididae, widely Haryana, Rajasthan & Delhi in West, Madhya Pradesh distributed in India. Members of Acrididae are in south and Bihar in southeast.

  • Orthoptera) in Aligarh Fort, Uttar Pradesh, India MD
    Trends in Biosciences 5 (1): 17-19, 2012 Impact of Abiotic Factors on Population of Acridoid Fauna (Orthoptera) in Aligarh Fort, Uttar Pradesh, India MD. HUMAYOON AKHTAR, MOHD. KAMIL USMANI AND MD. RASHID NAYEEM Section of Entomology, Department of Zoology, Aligarh Muslim University, Aligarh 202 002 email: [email protected] ABSTRACT significant damage to tree seedlings and agricultural crops A regular survey was carried out weekly during the period of (Joshi, et al., 1999). Most grasshoppers are oligophagous January to December 2011 from Aligarh Fort to record Acridoid and exhibit definite host preferences (Mulkern, 1967), fauna. Their population have been compared with three abiotic according to which grasshoppers are classified as grass- factors i.e., temperature, humidity and rainfall. Altogether 29 feeders (graminivorous), forb-feeders (forbivorous) or a mix species representing 21 genera belonging to 3 tribes, 7 of the two (ambivorous or mixed feeders). subfamilies and three families have been recorded from this region. Out of 29 species Acrididae, Catantopidae and MATERIALS AND METHODS Pyrgomorphidae are represented by 14, 10 and 5 species Weekly observations were recorded during the period respectively. Maximum number of specimens as well as species have been recorded in the month of August, September and of January to December 2011 to assess the distribution and October whereas minimum number of specimens and species diversity of grasshoppers in Aligarh fort. Grasshoppers were recorded in the month of December, January and February. collected through net sweeping and hand picking method Acridoid population positively correlate with maximum and killed using bottle having ethyl acetate. For the purpose temperature, minimum temperature, minimum relative of correct identification and photography the grasshoppers humidity and rainfall but do not correlate with maximum were stretched, pinned and labeled and examined under stereo relative humidity.
