Quantitative Staging of Embryonic Development of the Grasshopper, Schistocerca Nitens
J. Embryol. exp. Morph. Vol. 54, pp. 47-74, 1979 47 Printed in Great Britain © Company of Biologists Limited 1979 Quantitative staging of embryonic development of the grasshopper, Schistocerca nitens By DAVID BENTLEY,1 HAIG KESHISHIAN, MARTIN SHANKLAND AND ALMA TOROIAN-RAYMOND From the Department of Zoology, University of California, Berkeley SUMMARY During development of the grasshopper embryo, it is feasible to examine the structure, pharmacology, and physiology of uniquely identified cells. These experiments require a fast, accurate staging system suitable for live embryos. We present a system comprising (1) subdivision of embryogenesis into equal periods, (2) expression of stage in percent of complete embryogenesis time, (3) characterization of stages by light micrographs (and descriptive text), and (4) illustration of stages at the egg, embryo, and limb levels of resolution. Advantages of a percent-system include communicability, flexibility in temporal resolution, accurate assignment of elapsed time in developmental processes, and uniform coverage of the period of embryogenesis. The stages described are at 5 % intervals with an estimated error of ± 1 %. INTRODUCTION Recently it has become possible to investigate the physiology, pharmacology, and morphology of single, identified neurons, neuroblasts and other cell types during embryogenesis in grasshoppers (Bate, 197'6 a, b; Spitzer, 1979; Goodman & Spitzer, 1979; Goodman, O'Shea, McCaman & Spitzer, 1979; Bentley & Toroian-Raymond, 1979). The paucity of preparations in which these approaches are feasible has made grasshopper embryogenesis particularly attractive for analysing many problems in developmental neurobiology and developmental biology in general. To accurately characterize the time course of developmental events, it is necessary to have a precise, rapid staging system, applicable to unstained, living material and covering the entire period of embryogenesis. -

ECOLOGÍA Y COMPORTAMIENTO Entomología Mexicana, 1: 552– 557 (2014) BIOLOGÍA Y ECOLOGÍA DE Schistocerca damnifica (SAUSSURE, 1861) (ORTHOPTERA: ACRIDIDAE) EN EL SUR DE TAMAULIPAS, MÉXICO Ludivina Barrientos-Lozano, Aurora Yazmín Rocha-Sánchez, Erick Ávalos Alarcón, Pedro Almaguer-Sierra, Sandra Grisell Mora-Ravelo. Instituto Tecnológico de Cd. Victoria. Blvd. Emilio Portes Gil No. 1301. Ciudad Victoria, Tamaulipas. Mexico. 87010. [email protected] RESUMEN: Schistocerca daminifica es común en el noreste de México. Aunque se reconoce la presencia e infestaciones moderadas de S. damnifica en la zona agrícola del sur del Estado, no se cuenta con información básica sobre esta especie. Este trabajo tuvo como objetivo estudiar aspectos bio-ecológicos de la langosta S. damnifica bajo condiciones semi- controladas y en campo en el sur de Tamaulipas. En campo S. damnifica coexiste frecuentemente con poblaciones de S. p. piceifrons y S. pallens y en algunos requerimientos ecológicos presenta similitudes con estas especies. Sin embargo, no exhibe un marcado polifenismo como S. p. piceifrons y no se han observado poblaciones gregarias. S. damnifica presenta dos generaciones anuales, la segunda generación sobrevive el invierno como adulto, sexualmente inmaduro, en estado de diapausa. Los adultos de la segunda generación se aparean en abril-mayo y dan lugar a la primera generación que tiene un desarrollo rápido, las ninfas pasan por seis estadios con una duración promedio de 7, 9, 18, 10, 9 y 10 días, respectivamente. El tiempo promedio para alcanzar el estado adulto es de 62 días. Adultos de la primera generación se aparean en julio- agosto y dan lugar a la segunda generación cuyos adultos permanecen en diapausa de noviembre a abril. -

Comparative Cytogenetics 9(3): 435–450. doi: 10.3897/CompCytogen.v9i3.5160 Abstract Tropidacris Scudder, 1869 is a genus widely distributed throughout the Neotropical region where specia- tion was probably promoted by forest reduction during the glacial and interglacial periods. There are no cytogenetic studies of Tropidacris, and information allowing inference or confirmation of the evolutionary events involved in speciation within the group is insufficient. -

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). -

O fungo entomopatogênico Metarhizium flavoviride (Gams & Rozsypal), candidato potencial ao controle de acridídeos em vários países, foi isolado de S. pallens no Nordeste do Brasil. Desde então, o patógeno tem sido estudado visando ao seu desenvolvimento como bioinseticida contra Rhammatocerus schistocercoides (Rehn), S. pallens e Stiphra robusta Mello-Leitão, que são os principais gafanhotos-praga do Brasil. Em testes realizados em condições de laboratório, aplicações tópicas de M. flavoviride (isolado CG 423), formulado em suspensão oleosa com diferentes concentrações de conídios (9.000 – 21.000 conídios/ inseto), causaram elevada mortalidade (≥ 86%) em adultos de S. pallens. Não houve mortalidade no grupo testemunha. Dentre as doses de conídios utilizadas, não houve diferença significativa quanto ao tempo médio de sobrevivência dos insetos (6,2 a 6,9 dias). Esses resultados evidenciaram que M. -

Royer Extension Specialist for Small Grains and Row Crop Entomology, Integrated Pest Management Coordinator Grasshoppers and Relatives Orthoptera is the order of insects that includes grasshop- pers, katydids and crickets. These insects are recognizable by their shape and the presence of jumping hind legs. The differ- ences among grasshoppers, crickets and katydids place them into different families. The Choctaw recognize these differences and call grasshoppers – shakinli, crickets – shalontaki and katydids– shakinli chito. Grasshoppers and the Choctaw As the men emerged from the hill and spread throughout the lands, they would trample many more grasshoppers, killing Because of their abundance, large size and importance and harming the orphaned children.
