Grylloidea Laicharting, 1781; Gryllotalpoidea Leach, 1815; Gryllidea [1] is an infraorder that includes crickets and similar insects in the order Orthoptera. There ...
Schizodactylidae and Grylloidea were shown to be sister taxa, and Rhaphidophoridae and Tettigoniidae were found to be more closely related to Grylloidea than had previously been thought. The authors stated that "a high degree of conflict exists between the molecular and morphological data, possibly indicating that much homoplasy is present in ...
The family Gryllidae contains the subfamilies and genera which entomologists now term true crickets.Having long, whip-like antennae, they belong to the Orthopteran suborder Ensifera, which has been greatly reduced in the last 100 years (e.g. Imms [3]): taxa such as the tree crickets, spider-crickets and their allies, sword-tail crickets, wood or ground crickets and scaly crickets have been ...
The Gryllotalpoidea are a superfamily of insects that includes the mole crickets and the ant crickets. [1] The type genus is Gryllotalpa. [1] [2] [3]Recent (2015) molecular phylogenetic studies support the monophyly of the cricket clade (Gryllidea in the Orthoptera Species File [4]) and its subdivision into two clades: Gryllotalpidae and Myrmecophilidae on the one hand, and all the other ...
At one time, many field crickets found in the eastern states of the United States were assumed to be a single species and were referred to as Gryllus assimilis.However, in 1932, the entomologist B. B. Fulton showed that four populations of field cricket in North Carolina, that were morphologically identical and which were all considered to be G. assimilis, produced four different songs.
Gryllinae, or field crickets, are a subfamily of insects in the order Orthoptera and the family Gryllidae.. They hatch in spring, and the young crickets (called nymphs) eat and grow rapidly.
Gryllodes [1] is a genus of crickets in the family Gryllidae and tribe Gryllini.Species have been recorded in Australia, Asia, Africa (Ethiopia), central Europe, subtropical and tropical Americas.
