Ornebius
''Ornebius'' is a genus of crickets in the family Mogoplistidae and the tribe Arachnocephalini, erected by Félix Édouard Guérin-Méneville in 1844. Species may be called "common scaled crickets" and have widespread records of distribution, which are discontinuous (and probably incomplete); they include: Africa, Asia, Australia, islands in the Indian and Pacific Oceans, and South America.7.5 mm in length. The tegmen posterior margin has either a continuous black or brown band or three darkened areas. The tibiae of the fore and mid legs are banded.

This genus can be divided into at least seven species groups, with other genera currently (2023) ''incertae sedis or is a term used for a taxonomy (biology), taxonomic group where its broader relationships are unknown or undefined.

Gryllidae
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.'' ImmsImms AD, rev. Richards OW & Davies RG (1970) ''A General Textbook of Entomology'' 9th Ed. Methuen 886 pp.): taxa such as the tree crickets, spider-crickets and their allies, sword-tail crickets, wood or ground crickets and scaly crickets have been moved or elevated to family level. The type genus is '' Gryllus'' and the first use of the family name "Gryllidae" was by Francis Walker. They have a worldwide distribution (except Antarctica). The most familiar field crickets ( Gryllinae) are characteristically robust brown or black insects; the largest members of the family are the -long bull crickets ('' Brachytrupes'') which excavate burrows a metre or more deep. Subfamilies The family is divided into these subfamily grou ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Grylloidea
Grylloidea is the Taxonomic rank#Ranks in zoology, superfamily of insects, in the order (biology), order Orthoptera, known as Cricket (insect), crickets. It includes the "Gryllidae, true crickets", Mogoplistinae, scaly crickets, Nemobiinae, wood crickets and many other subfamilies, now placed in six Extant taxon, extant families; some genera are only known from fossils. Grylloidea dates from the Triassic period and contains about 3,700 known living species in some 528 genera, as well as at least 27 extinct genera. Characteristics The features which distinguish crickets in the superfamily Grylloidea from other Ensiferans are long, thread-like antennae, three tarsal segments, slender tactile Cercus, cerci at the tip of the abdomen and bulbous sensory bristles on the cerci. They are the only insects to share this combination of characteristics. The term cricket is popularly used for any cricket-like insect in the order Ensifera, being applied to the ant crickets, bush crickets (Tet ...

Species
A species () is often defined as the largest group of organisms in which any two individuals of the appropriate sexes or mating types can produce fertile offspring, typically by sexual reproduction. It is the basic unit of Taxonomy (biology), classification and a taxonomic rank of an organism, as well as a unit of biodiversity. Other ways of defining species include their karyotype, DNA sequence, morphology (biology), morphology, behaviour, or ecological niche. In addition, palaeontologists use the concept of the chronospecies since fossil reproduction cannot be examined. The most recent rigorous estimate for the total number of species of eukaryotes is between 8 and 8.7 million. About 14% of these had been described by 2011. All species (except viruses) are given a binomial nomenclature, two-part name, a "binomen". The first part of a binomen is the name of a genus to which the species belongs. The second part is called the specific name (zoology), specific name or the specific ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Félix Édouard Guérin-Méneville
Félix Édouard Guérin-Méneville, also known as F. E. Guerin, (12 October 1799, in Toulon – 26 January 1874, in Paris) was a French entomologist. Life and work Guérin-Méneville changed his surname from Guérin in 1836. He was the author of the illustrated work ''Iconographie du Règne Animal de G. Cuvier 1829–1844'', a complement to the work of the zoologists Georges Cuvier and Pierre André Latreille, ''Le Règne Animal'', which illustrated only a selection of the animals covered. Cuvier was delighted with the work, saying that it would be very useful to readers, and that the illustrations were "as accurate as they were elegant". He also introduced silkworms to France, so they could be bred for the production of silk. Guérin-Méneville founded several journals: ''Magasin de zoologie, d’anatomie comparée et de paléontologie'' (1830), ''Revue zoologique par la Société cuviérienne'' (1838), ''Revue et Magasin de zoologie pure et appliquée'' (1849), and ''Revue de ...
