This paper discusses orthopteran conservation in temperate and subtropical Eurasia. Distribution patterns of the orthopteran centres of diversity and endemism are described. Eleven main areas of diversity and endemism are identified. The majority of rare taxa are associated with these areas. The distribution of protected areas is discussed in relation to orthopteran conservation. Some proposals for inclusion or exclusion of certain orthopteran species on the IUCN and national Red Lists are debated. Emphasis is given to landscape heterogeneity and ecosystem mosaics for orthopteran biodiversity conservation. 相似文献

The formation of orthopteran communities in the mountains of southwestern Tajikistan is described, with their seasonal dynamics characterized on the basis of counts. It is shown that the dominance structure changes with altitude. The valleys and slopes of different altitudinal belts play an important role in the formation of communities of orthopteran insects. 相似文献

Microhabitat heterogeneity is considered to be one of the main factors affecting the structure and diversity of natural communities. This study evaluated: (i) whether it is possible to associate the distribution of four orthopteran species with small-scale spatial microhabitat heterogeneity based on floristic composition; and (ii) whether interspecific differences exist in microhabitat was among the different orthopteran species over a gradient of vegetation succession induced by abandonment of meadows. Orthoptera and plant species were sampled on 72 plots across an ecotonal area on Monte Bondone in the Southern Italian Alps. Microhabitats were identified based on grassland and undergrowth vegetation composition and by classifying sample plots using cluster analysis. Eight microhabitats were identified, each corresponding to a separate successional stage, and microhabitat use by each species was assessed. The distribution of orthopteran species revealed a different use of microhabitats. Species also had differing patterns of distribution, and a shift in distribution occurred following a change in microhabitat structure caused by mowing. The importance of the maintenance of a mosaic of microhabitats, with differently managed adjacent areas is discussed. 相似文献

Orthopteran species are increasingly threatened with extinction in the wild. I review the state of orthopteran conservation in the wild, focusing on unique challenges facing these efforts. To provide a basis for discussion, I first review conservation efforts for Trimerotropis infantilis, the Zayante bandwinged grasshopper, which was the first orthopteran given official protection under the U.S. Endangered Species Act. I then address the principal challenges for orthopteran conservation. Successful conservation of Orthoptera in the wild will require motivation for conservation action, availability of basic biological information, and development of applied management programmes. 相似文献

We examined the microclimate of different grasslands and the relationships between the seasonal changes in the microclimatic
conditions and the structural characteristics of orthopteran assemblages in the most typical grassland types of the plain,
hilly and submontaneous territories of Central Europe in 2000–2005 years. According to our results: (i) The seasonal changes
of humidity were characteristic of the vegetation units; (ii) The microclimate components of grasslands with similar habitat
structure could be similar independently from their ecological circumstances; (iii) The microclimatic changes influenced the
structure of the orthopteran assemblages. 相似文献

During the past 50 years development of farming practices caused tremendous changes in European agricultural landscapes and
many insect species became increasingly restricted to protected areas. Yet little is known about long-term trends of insect
diversity and community composition in these often small reserves. We performed a comparative study on changes in orthopteran
communities of protected dry grasslands in East Germany, which had been surveyed in the 1960s. Applying the same sampling
techniques, we revisited 26 of the original sites in 2008 and 2009. Nearly all sites are controlled by conservation policies
and changes in vegetation composition were relatively small, although some sites showed shrub encroachment. Changes in orthopteran
diversity were not significant. Community composition showed minor changes which were correlated with evidence of woody plant
encroachment as derived from historical and recent aerial imagery. The frequency of some Caelifera species decreased from
the 1960s to 2008/2009 with one species inhabiting bare soils (Myrmeleotettix maculatus) showing the strongest decline. Some Ensifera, especially two species inhabiting open woodland and scrub (Tettigonia viridissima, Phaneroptera falcata) showed positive trends. Nevertheless, three different regions (each belonging to a different German federal state) had shown
distinct orthopteran assemblages in the 1960s, and these were equally different 40 years later. We conclude that the orthopteran
fauna of Central European protected dry grasslands showed small changes in species composition, and overall diversity remained
rather constant during the past 40 years, which is in accordance with the minor changes in the surrounding landscape. Consequently,
the applied conservation management practises—mainly sheep grazing and trimming—are largely effective. 相似文献

Although grasslands harbour significant biodiversity and their restoration is common in biodiversity conservation, we know very little about how such interventions influence arthropod groups. Here we compared orthopteran assemblages in croplands, natural grasslands and one to four-year-old grasslands restored in a large-scale programme in Hortobágy National Park (East Hungary). We sampled orthopterans by standardized sweep-netting both in a repeated measures design from Year 0 (croplands) to 4 and in a space-for-time substitution (chronosequence) design in 2009. Species richness, abundance and Shannon diversity of orthopterans decreased in Year 1 following restoration, but increased afterwards. By Year 4, species richness doubled and abundance increased almost ten-fold in restored grasslands compared to croplands. Species composition diversified compared to croplands and progressed towards natural grasslands. Local restoration conditions (last crop, seed mixture) and landscape configuration (proportion of natural grasslands) did not influence the above patterns in either study design, whereas time since restoration affected almost all community variables. We found that ubiquitous generalist species were the first to appear in restored grasslands and that species characteristic to the target natural grasslands colonised gradually in later years. The qualitative and quantitative properties of the orthopteran assemblages in restored fields did not yet reach those of natural grasslands, therefore, our study suggests that the full regeneration of the orthopteran assemblages takes more than four years. We also concluded that the repeated-measures design was more sensitive to subtle changes and was thus more effective than the chronosequence design at detecting post-restoration changes in orthopteran assemblages. 相似文献

Although the vast majority of orthopterans are not pests, some species have the potential to cause serious damage to human interests. Management of pest populations frequently conflicts with conservation of orthopteran species and processes, particularly when the pest species or its ecological processes are susceptible to extinction or when the pest population is coincident with non-target orthopterans. With respect to chemical control, the greatest hazards are the broad-spectrum, highly lethal properties of most agents, which can be mitigated with formulation and application methods. Biological control risks permanent, large-scale changes to orthopteran species and processes which can be minimized with bioinsecticidal and other short-lived or selective formulations and reliable host-range testing. Cultural control may have large-scale, broad-spectrum impacts to non-target orthopterans, but these hazards can be diminished by appropriate testing and monitoring. Mechanical control methods may be impractically labour intensive, but they are highly target specific and therefore warrant further consideration. Social control measures such as education, insurance and compensation programmes appear to have little direct potential for harm to orthopteran conservation, but the complex socioeconomic and, ultimately, environmental consequences of such programmes have not been assessed. The melding of orthopteran pest management and conservation requires that we perceive these insects and their ecological processes to be vital elements of sustainable agroecosystems. Our management of orthopterans (both non-target and pest populations) must focus on keeping good stewards on the land. 相似文献

Apolipophorin III has been isolated and characterized from two orthopteran species, Barytettix psolus and Melanoplus differentialis. Both apoLp-IIIs have Mr ∼ 20,000 and contain 5% covalently bound sugar. Compositional analysis of the carbohydrate component of these apoLp-IIIs, as well as Locusta migratoria apoLp-III, revealed the presence of manose, fucose and N-acetyl glucosamine. In all three proteins the ratios of these sugar residues was similar (∼2:2:1). Amino acid analysis of B. psolus and M. differentialis apoLp-IIIs was performed and the results compared with those from L. migratoria and M. sexta apoLp-IIIs. The three orthopteran apoLp-IIIs possessed very similar compositions that were distinct from that of M. sexta. Similarly, N-terminal sequence analysis revealed ∼50% sequence identity between the three orthopteran apoLp-IIIs but only 9–18% identity was observed when B. psolus or M. differentialis apoLp-IIIs were compared to M. sexta apoLp-III. The implications of these findings, with respect to flight-related physiology and adipokinetic hormone stimulated lipid mobilization in these different species, is discussed. 相似文献

We present a DNA barcoding study on the insect order Orthoptera that was generated in collaboration between four barcoding projects in three countries, viz. Barcoding Fauna Bavarica (Germany), German Barcode of Life, Austrian Barcode of Life and Swiss Barcode of Life. Our data set includes 748 COI sequences from 127 of the 162 taxa (78.4%) recorded in the three countries involved. Ninety‐three of these 122 species (76.2%, including all Ensifera) can be reliably identified using DNA barcodes. The remaining 26 caeliferan species (families Acrididae and Tetrigidae) form ten clusters that share barcodes among up to five species, in three cases even across different genera, and in six cases even sharing individual barcodes. We discuss incomplete lineage sorting and hybridization as most likely causes of this phenomenon, as the species concerned are phylogenetically young and hybridization has been previously observed. We also highlight the problem of nuclear mitochondrial pseudogenes (numts), a known problem in the barcoding of orthopteran species, and the possibility of Wolbachia infections. Finally, we discuss the possible taxonomic implications of our barcoding results and point out future research directions. 相似文献

Hemopoiesis in orthopteran insects occurs in a hemopoietic organ that is located bilaterally along the aorta. This organ is also known as a reticulo-hemopoietic organ because of the rich presence of reticular cells. This study was performed to further elucidate hemopoiesis in the reticulo-hemopoietic organ of an orthopteran, Euprepocnemis shirakii. We focused on the question why reticular cells are so abundant (35% of cells in hemopoietic organ). Interestingly, 21% of these reticular cells surrounded hemocytes with their reticular cytoplasm. The surrounded hemocytes were distinguished by their different size and darkly stained nucleus. These cells were characterized by immunostaining using antibodies against several types of hemocytes: 45% of the surrounded hemocytes were CD34+, and these positive cells were double stained (over 85%) when immunostained by another hemopoietic pluripotent cell marker, Sca-1. Transmission electron microscopic analysis showed that reticular cells surrounded hemocytes containing large nuclei and poorly developed cytoplasmic organelles. This strongly suggests that the reticular cells surround hemopoietic stem cells. Additionally, surrounded hemopoietic progenitor cells are undergoing apoptosis as indicated by the TUNEL assay. The enclosed apoptotic cells are engulfed and then phagocytosed by reticular cells. Our results suggest that reticular cells are related to the differentiation and apoptosis of hemopoietic stem cells. 相似文献

Diversity of some insect fauna in industrial and non-industrial areas of West Bengal, India 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The present work is designed to study diversity of five insect orders (viz., Hemiptera, Orthoptera, aculeate Hymenoptera,
Lepidoptera and Coleoptera) in the industrial region of Haldia (India) and in non-industrial area of the same district and
to evaluate the impact of industrialization on the biodiversity of those insect orders. The objective also extended to find
out the possibility of existence of bioindicator, if any. Eight study sites were selected from the East part of Midnapur district
covering 40 km aerial distance. Out of eight different study sites, five were distributed in and around Haldia industrial
complex and three in industry-free area. During this study, a total of 120 species under 98 genera in 37 families of insects
were collected. Binary data of 5 orders revealed that the species richness of Hemiptera, Orthoptera and Lepidoptera is higher
in non-industrial zone in comparison to that of industrial zone. Aculeate Hymenoptera shows no particular trend whereas Coleoptera
shows higher species richness in industrial areas. Results of multivariate analyses are compared with the species richness
data for all the eight study sites. It is concluded that even in an apparently homogeneous ecological condition species richness
may drastically change with the influence of industries. Total insect fauna decline by at least 23.33% is noticed in industrial
areas. It is found that some species of lepidopteran, hemipteran and orthopteran insects are susceptible to industrial pollution
and some of the members of these orders may be considered as a bioindicator group. 相似文献

The crustacean hyperglycemic hormone (CHH) peptide family includes four types of neuropeptide in decapod and isopod crustaceans, and the ion-transport peptide in orthopteran insects. To identify a new member of this family in Insecta, a PCR-based search for cDNAs encoding CHH-family peptides was carried out in the silkworm Bombyx mori. A cDNA, named BmCHHL (Bombyx mori CHH-like protein), with an open reading frame of 110 amino acids was isolated. Sequence analyses suggested that the conceptual protein was a precursor of a peptide of 72 amino acids which was amidated at the carboxy terminus. The BmCHHL sequence exhibited significant similarities to members of the CHH family including the orthopteran ion-transport peptide. BmCHHL expression was detected in five or six cells (per hemisphere) in the frontal area of the brain in day 4 fifth instar larvae. 相似文献

Edge effects are increasingly recognised as a threat to interior species, but the influence of edges on open habitats has rarely been addressed so far. We investigated the diversity pattern of the Orthoptera fauna across a habitat edge between a pine plantation and a natural steppe ecosystem. Thirty pitfall traps were positioned along a transect line from 80 m in the forest to 208 m in the grassland at 10 fixed distances from the edge. The orthopteran assemblage of the pine plantation was depauperate in species and individuals and, with a few exceptions, lacked steppe species. We found no increase in species richness at the forest–grassland edge. In the grassland, Orthoptera species numbers increased steadily with increasing distance from the forest edge. Two-phase regression analysis revealed a traceable edge effect up to about 30 m into the grassland. This effect was exclusively caused by an increase in acridid species numbers, while tettigoniid species numbers showed no clear relation to edge distance. Correlation analysis of the habitat variables suggested that this pattern is a result of irradiance and soil temperature sums. Since acridids show species-specific temperature requirements for their development, shading of the soil surface prevents a number of species from completing their life cycle. We suggest that present trends of shrub encroachment and eutrophication of dry grassland habitats in eastern Austria are serious threats for a large part of the orthopteran fauna. 相似文献
