Gorochov, Zoological Institute, Russian Academy of Sciences, 1 Universitetskaya Emb., St. Petersburg, 199034, Russia. E-mail: [email protected] Tribal position of some American representatives of Podoscirtinae and differences between this subfamily and Eneopterinae are discussed. Two former tribes are reduced to the subtribes Aph- onomorphina and Neometrypina (both in Podoscirtini). Two new genera, four new subgenera, 30 new species and two new subspecies are described. The former genus Euaphonus Hebard, 1928 is reduced to a subgenus of the genus Aphonomorphus Rehn, 1903. New replacement name Eneopteroides chopardi nom. nov. is proposed for Eneopteroides flavifrons Chopard, 1956 which is a junior secondary homonym of Eneopteroides flavifrons (Saussure, 1897). Systematic position and distribution of some other American taxa of Podoscirtini are clarified. В работе обсуждаются таксономичское положение некоторых американских представи- телей Podoscirtinae и различия между этим подсемейством и Eneopterinae. Ранг двух триб понижен до подтрибы: Aphonomorphina и Neometrypina (обе в Podoscirtini). Опи- саны два новых рода, четыре новых подрода, 30 новых видов и два новых подвида. Бывший род Euaphonus Hebard, 1928 включен в род Aphonomorphus Rehn, 1903 в качестве подрода. Предложено новое замещающее название Eneopteroides chopardi nom. nov. для Eneopteroides flavifrons Chopard, 1956, который стал младшим вторичным омонимом названия Eneopteroides flavifrons (Saussure, 1897).

Seven species are thus confirmed or re-established as valid species (C. novaeguineae (Hann, 1842), C. canotus Saussure, 1878, C. gaimardi (Serville, 1838), C. haani Saussure, 1878, C. guttulus (Matsumura, 1913), C. pictus Saussure, 1878 and C. rufidulusSaussure, 1878), then assigned to a species group and redescribed by combining information from old type KEY WORDS series and newer material; two species are considered as nomen dubium (new Insecta, status or confirmation of previous hypotheses: C. praecipuus (Walker, 1869) Orthoptera, and C. philippinensis Bolívar, 1913); and two species described recently are Grylloidea, Eneopterinae, synonymised with older species (C. boharti Otte, 2007 under C. guttulus, Lebinthini.

ABSTRACT Cricket stridulums and calls are highly stereotyped, except those with greatly modified tegmina and/or vena- tion, or ‘‘unusual’’ frequency, duration and/or intensity. This acoustic diversity remained unsuspected until recently, and current models of acoustic evolution in crickets erroneously consider this clade homogeneous for acoustic features. The few phylogenetic studies analyzing acoustic evolution in crickets demonstrated that acoustic behavior could be particularly labile in some clades. The ensuing pattern for cricket evolution is consequently extremely complex.

Biodiversity Data Journal 8: e54222. https://doi.org/10.3897/BDJ.8.e54222 Abstract After reviewing the published literature on sound production in insects, a standardised terminology and controlled vocabularies have been created. This combined terminology has potential for use in automated identification systems, evolutionary studies, and other use cases where the synthesis of bioacoustic traits from the literature is required. An example implementation has been developed for the BioAcoustica platform. It is hoped that future development of controlled vocabularies will become a community effort. Keywords insect, sound production, vocabulary, bioacoustics Introduction "Two dangers face the student seeking to rationalize and codify a terminology that has grown up empirically and that is beginning to differentiate regionally or according to faculty or in other ways - as must always tend to happen. One danger is that of legislating prematurely and clumsily for hypothetical future requirements; the other is a too easy-going and long-sustained attitude of laissez-faire arising from wishing to let the mud settle before trying to penetrate the shadows of often chaotic and obscure usages.

ABSTRACT Cricket stridulums and calls are highly stereotyped, except those with greatly modified tegmina and/or vena- tion, or ‘‘unusual’’ frequency, duration and/or intensity. This acoustic diversity remained unsuspected until recently, and current models of acoustic evolution in crickets erroneously consider this clade homogeneous for acoustic features. The few phylogenetic studies analyzing acoustic evolution in crickets demonstrated that acoustic behavior could be particularly labile in some clades. The ensuing pattern for cricket evolution is consequently extremely complex. We argue that: (1) phylogeny should always be considered when analyz- ing acoustic evolution, whatever characters are considered (signals, stridulums or behaviors). Consequently, future studies should be devoted to entire clades, and not consider isolated taxa; character and character state definitions should allow significant reconstructions of character evolutionary transformations; and homolo- gies should be carefully defined for all characters, including behavior. (2) The factors responsible for song effectiveness should be reconsidered and hypotheses on their potential influence on signal evolution tested jointly by phylogenies (for example, to assess correlated transformations of acoustic and ecological features), and population studies (for example, to correlate call range and population structure, or test the predation risk associated with a signal structure).

Zoosystema 38 (4): 405-452. https:// doi.org/10.5252/z2016n4a1 ABSTRACT Crickets (Insecta, Orthoptera, Gryllidea) are amongst the most abundant and diverse insects in New Caledonia: 40 genera are recorded today from the Archipelago and 180 cricket species have been reported; 19 genera and more than 90% of the species are endemic. Owing to this diversity, crickets prove an interesting model to test evolutionary hypotheses about New Caledonia and its fauna.

  • Orthoptera, Gryllidae, Eneopterinae)
    Seasonal life cycle of the tropical cricket Eneoptera surinamensis... 267 Seasonal life cycle of the tropical cricket Eneoptera surinamensis (Orthoptera, Gryllidae, Eneopterinae) Edison Zefa, Fernando M. Rúbio, Alcides R. Rinaldi, Luis H. Gollin, Denis B. F. da Silva & Pedro G. B. S. Dias Departamento de Zoologia e Genética, Universidade Federal de Pelotas (UFPel), 96010-900 Capão do Leão, RS, Brasil. ABSTRACT. The life cycle and seasonal distribution of a tropical population of Eneoptera surinamensis (De Geer, 1773) were analyzed aiming to verify whether this species life cycle is associated to the wet and dry seasons. The population studied was found at the Seasonal Alluvial Semi-deciduous Forest, Foz de Iguaçu, PR, Brazil (25º27’54.9’’ S; 54º34’27.9’’ W), which presents mild mesothermal and super th humid climate. Field observations were made at 20- to 24-day intervals, with the first observation occurring on April 30 , 2002 and the th last on April 25 , 2003. It was verified that the studied species is univoltine and cyclic with regards to the dry and wet seasons, therefore being heterodynamic and surviving the dry season as adult. KEYWORDS. Gryllidae, seasonal distribution, univoltine, heterodynamic. RESUMO. Ciclo de vida e distribuição sazonal do grilo tropical Eneoptera surinamensis (Orthoptera, Gryllidae, Eneopterinae). O ciclo de vida e a distribuição sazonal de uma população tropical de Eneoptera surinamensis (De Geer, 1773) foram analisados com o objetivo de verificar se o ciclo dessa espécie tem associação com as estações secas e úmidas. A população analisada encontra-se na Floresta Estacional Semidecidual Aluvial, Foz do Iguaçu, PR, Brasil (25º27’54.9’’ S; 54º34’27.9’’ W), a qual apresenta clima mesótermico brando superúmido sem seca.

  • Laying the Foundations of Evolutionary and Systematic Studies in Crickets (Insecta, Orthoptera): a Multilocus Phylogenetic Analysis

We propose the first phylogenetic hypothesis for the evolu- tion of crickets sensu lato, based on analysis of 205 species, representing 88% of the subfamilies and 71% tribes currently listed in the database Orthoptera Species File (OSF). We reconstructed parsimony, maximum likelihood and Bayesian phylogenies using fragments of 18S, 28SA, 28SD, H3, 12S, 16S, and cytb (~3600 bp). Our results support the monophyly of the cricket clade, and its subdivision into two clades: mole crickets and ant-loving crickets on the one hand, and all the other crickets on the other (i.e. crickets sensu stricto). Crickets sensu stricto form seven monophyletic clades, which support part of the OSF fami- lies, “subfamily groups”, or subfamilies: the mole crickets (OSF Gryllotalpidae), the scaly crickets (OSF Mogoplistidae), and the true crickets (OSF Gryllidae) are recovered as monophyletic.
