El presente trabajo tiene por objetivo proporcionar información sobre la diversidad de ortópteros en el Estado de Tamaulipas, noreste de México. Se reportan 210 especies, agrupadas en veinticuatro subfamilias. De éstas el 4% (9 especies) son endémicas para el estado de Tamaulipas (ET), 29% (61) son endémicas para México (EM), 9% (19) son nuevos registros para Tamaulipas (NRT) y 17% (36) son nuevos registros para México (NRM). La diversidad biológica del grupo, está asociada al gran número de ecosistemas presentes. Esta variedad de ecosistemas es resultado de la historia geológica, clima, suelo y vegetación, características que dan origen a la presencia de cuatro Provincias Biogeográficas en el Estado: Tamaulipeca, Golfo de México, Sierra Madre Oriental y Altiplano Sur. Palabras clave: México, Tamaulipas, Orthoptera, diversidad, endemismos A contribution to the knowledge of the orthoptera (Ensifera and Caelifera) of Tamaulipas, Mexico ABSTRACT. This work aims to provide information on Orthoptera diversity in Tamaulipas, northeastern Mexico. We report 210 species grouped in twenty-four subfamilies, out of these 4% (9 species) are endemic to the State of Tamaulipas (ET), 29% (61) are endemic to Mexico (EM), 9% (19) represent new records for Tamaulipas (NRT) and 17% (36) are new records for Mexico (NRM). Diversity of the group is associated to the large number of ecosystems present. This great variety of ecosystems is a consequence of geological history, climate, soil and vegetation; characteristics that give rise to the presence of four Biogeographic Provinces in the State: Tamaulipeca, Gulf of Mexico, Eastern Mountain Range and Southern High lands. Key words: Mexico, Tamaulipas, Orthoptera, diversity, endemisms Introducción El estado de Tamaulipas comprende cuatro provincias biogeográficas: Tamaulipeca, Golfo de México, Sierra Madre Oriental y Altiplano Sur (CONABIO, 1997). El estado presenta un amplio y variado mosaico de ecosistemas, que van desde el matorral espinoso tamaulipeco, tierras áridas, selva baja, bosque de encino, bosque de pino, bosque encino-pino y bosque de niebla, entre otros. Esto explica la abundancia y diversidad biológica en general, así como la diversidad e importancia de los ortópteros, en particular. Los ortópteros (Orthoptera) representan uno de los 29 órdenes de la clase Insecta (Gillot, 2005), e incluye a saltamontes, langostas, esperanzas y grillos. Actualmente se conocen unas 25,000 especies de ortópteros distribuidas mundialmente, de las cuales más de 970 especies ocurren en México, estimándose que este número podría ser mucho mayor (Barrientos-Lozano, 2004; Otte, 1981, 1984, 2000, 2007; Fontana et al. 2007; Barrientos-Lozano et al. 2011). Aunque la mayoría de los Ortópteros son fitófagos, hay especies carnívoras y depredadoras activas, ej. Tettigonia viridissima (Linnaeus, 1758) y Neobarrettia vannifera Cohn, 1965. Los ortópteros son de gran importancia en la preservación de los ecosistemas como consumidores primarios, destructores de compuestos orgánicos e integrantes de numerosas cadenas tróficas, contribuyendo de esta manera en el equilibrio del planeta. El presente trabajo tiene por objetivo proporcionar información sobre la diversidad de ortópteros en el Estado de Tamaulipas. Las especies reportadas están depositadas en la colección del Instituto Tecnológico de Cd. Victoria. 1431 Materiales y métodos Para llevar a cabo el trabajo se revisó el material depositado en la colección de Ortópteros del Instituto Tecnológico de Cd. Victoria, colectas realizadas de 1981 a 2012. La determinación de ejemplares fue confirmada con visitas a las colecciones entomológicas de la Universidad de Michigan-Museo de Zoología y del IB-UNAM. Resultados y Discusión En el cuadro 1 se presentan las especies determinadas, agrupadas por suborden, familia, subfamilia, género y especie. Las familias representadas son: Gryllidae, Oecanthidae, Anostostomatidae, Gryllacrididae, Stenopelmatidae, Rhaphidophoridae, Tettigoniidae, Acrididae, Pyrgomorphidae, Romaleidae, Tetrigidae. Se reportan 210 especies que representan veinticuatro subfamilias. Del total de especies, 4% (9 especies) son endémicas para el estado de Tamaulipas (ET), 29% (61) son endémicas para México (EM), 9% (19) son nuevos registros para Tamaulipas (NRT) y 17% (36) son nuevos registros para México (NRM). La diversidad biológica del estado, y por ende del grupo, está asociada a la presencia de cuatro Provincias Biogeográficas (Tamaulipeca, Golfo de México, Sierra Madre Oriental y Altiplano Sur) lo cual da origen a un gran número de ecosistemas (CONABIO, 1997; Barrientos-Lozano et al., 2011). La fauna ortóptera de Tamaulipas representa el 23% del total de especies (920) reportadas para México (Barrientos-Lozano, 2004). Cuadro 1.

  • Insect Survey of Four Longleaf Pine Preserves
    A SURVEY OF THE MOTHS, BUTTERFLIES, AND GRASSHOPPERS OF FOUR NATURE CONSERVANCY PRESERVES IN SOUTHEASTERN NORTH CAROLINA Stephen P. Hall and Dale F. Schweitzer November 15, 1993 ABSTRACT Moths, butterflies, and grasshoppers were surveyed within four longleaf pine preserves owned by the North Carolina Nature Conservancy during the growing season of 1991 and 1992. Over 7,000 specimens (either collected or seen in the field) were identified, representing 512 different species and 28 families. Forty-one of these we consider to be distinctive of the two fire- maintained communities principally under investigation, the longleaf pine savannas and flatwoods. An additional 14 species we consider distinctive of the pocosins that occur in close association with the savannas and flatwoods. Twenty nine species appear to be rare enough to be included on the list of elements monitored by the North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (eight others in this category have been reported from one of these sites, the Green Swamp, but were not observed in this study). Two of the moths collected, Spartiniphaga carterae and Agrotis buchholzi, are currently candidates for federal listing as Threatened or Endangered species. Another species, Hemipachnobia s. subporphyrea, appears to be endemic to North Carolina and should also be considered for federal candidate status. With few exceptions, even the species that seem to be most closely associated with savannas and flatwoods show few direct defenses against fire, the primary force responsible for maintaining these communities. Instead, the majority of these insects probably survive within this region due to their ability to rapidly re-colonize recently burned areas from small, well-dispersed refugia.

Gurney, Division of Insect Identification Introduction In field work with the Mormon cricket (Anabrus simplex Hald.) and the coulee cricket (Peranabrus scabricollis (Thos.)), it is important to distinguish the two species from each other and from several allied genera and species of Orthoptera. In this paper identification keys, descriptions, notes on known distribution, and illustrations are presented for the purpose of aiding in the identification of these species. In some cases it is inm- possible at present to be sure whether certain specimens which have been studied represent two distinct species or whether they are subspecies of the same one. An attempt has been made to explain such difficulties, and to suggest what specimens will be most helpful in adding to our knowledge of the taxonomic position and geographical distribution of those forms. The principal genera discussed, in addition to the most important ones, Anabrus and Peranabrus, are Apote, Steiroxys, Pediodectes, and Eremopedes. The present paper will be more useful to field workers if a short time is given to studying identified material of several species, so that the important distinctions may be learned by comparison with specimens. The paper is the outgrowth of a study of collections made in 1938 by field work— ers in 10 Western States, who brought together large and important series of several species and genera. Caudell (1907) monographed the Decticinae of North America, and, as regards the species of immediate concern to the Mormon cricket problen, there have been few taxonomic changes.

L. Lindon, and J. A. Brazille Texas AgriLife Research 2301 Experiment Station Road Bushland, TX 79012 2008 Report Introductory Notes The invertebrate survey in 2008 presented an interesting challenge. Extremely dry conditions prevailed throughout most of the adult activity period for the invertebrates and grass fires occurred several times throughout the summer. By visual assessment, plant resources were scarce compared to last year, with few green plants and almost no flowering plants. Eight habitats and nine sites continued to be sampled in 2008. The Ponderosa pine/ yellow indiangrass site was removed from the study after the low numbers of species and individuals collected there in 2007. All other sites from the 2007 survey were included in the 2008 survey. We also discontinued the collection of Coccinellidae in the 2008 survey, as only 98 individuals from four species were collected in 2007. Pitfall and malaise trapping were continued in the same way as the 2007 survey. Sweep net sampling was discontinued to allow time for Asilidae and Orthoptera timed surveys consisting of direct collection of individuals with a net. These surveys were conducted in the same way as the time constrained butterfly (Papilionidea and Hesperoidea) surveys, with 15-minute intervals for each taxanomic group. This was sucessful when individuals were present, but the dry summer made it difficult to assess the utility of these techniques because of overall low abundance of insects.

Cerro de las Campanas, Querétaro, México. 2Department of Agroecology, Colegio de la Frontera Sur, San Cristóbal de las Casas, Chiapas, México. Accepted 16 December, 2011 Acridoidea is a superfamily within the Orthoptera order that comprises a group of short-horned insects commonly called grasshoppers. Grasshopper and locust species are major pests of grasslands and crops in all continents except Antarctica. Economically and historically, locusts and grasshoppers are two of the most destructive agricultural pests. The most important locust species belong to the genus Schistocerca and populate America, Africa, and Asia. Some grasshoppers considered to be important pests are the Melanoplus species, Camnula pellucida in North America, Brachystola magna and Sphenarium purpurascens in northern and central Mexico, and Oedaleus senegalensis and Zonocerus variegatus in Africa. Previous studies have classified these species based on specific characteristics. This review includes six headings. The first discusses the main species of grasshoppers and locusts; the second focuses on their worldwide distribution; the third describes their biology and life cycle; the fourth refers to climatic factors that facilitate the development of grasshoppers and locusts; the fifth discusses the action or reaction of grasshoppers and locusts to external or internal stimuli and the sixth refers to elements to design management strategies with emphasis on prevention.

Stidham Department of Integrative Biology, Museum of Paleontology, and Museum of Vertebrate Zoology, University of California, Berkeley, CA 94720, Abstract: Texas has one of the most diverse orthopteroid assemblages of any state in the United States, reflecting the varied habitats found in the state. Three hundred and eighty-nine species and 78 subspecies of orthopteroid insects (Blattodea, Mantodea, Phasmatodea, and Orthoptera) have published records for the state of Texas. This is the first such comprehensive checklist for Texas and should aid future work on these groups in this area. Introduction (Flook and Rowell, 1997).
