Tettigoniidae
Insects in the family Tettigoniidae are commonly called katydids (especially in North America), or bush crickets. They have previously been known as "long-horned grasshoppers". More than 8,000 species are known. Part of the suborder Ensifera, the Tettigoniidae are the only extant (living) family in the superfamily Tettigonioidea. They are primarily nocturnal in habit with strident mating calls. Many species exhibit mimicry and camouflage, commonly with shapes and colors similar to leaves. Etymology The family name Tettigoniidae is derived from the genus '' Tettigonia'', first described by Carl Linnaeus in 1758. In Latin ''tettigonia'' means a kind of small cicada, leafhopper; it is from the Greek τεττιγόνιον ''tettigonion'', the diminutive of the imitative ( onomatopoeic) τέττιξ, ''tettix'', cicada. All of these names such as ''tettix'' with repeated sounds are onomatopoeic, imitating the stridulation of these insects. The common name ''katydid'' is also on ...

Orchelimum Pulchellum
''Orchelimum pulchellum'', the handsome meadow katydid, is a species of meadow katydid in the family Tettigoniidae. It is found in North America. Description The body length of the handsome meadow katydid is . This katydid is distinguished from ''Orchelimum nigripes'', its western relative, by the shape of the caudal portion of its lateral pronotum, which is arcuate inferior to the humeral sinus in ''O. pulchellum'', while the same portion is sinuate or sub-sinuate in ''O. nigripes''. The medial tooth on each of the paired male cerci in ''O. pulchellum'' is positioned at a less acute angle to the sinuate sinus of the cercus in ''O. pulchellum'' when compared to that of ''O. nigripes''. In females, the ovipositor is long and sickle shaped. The tibiae are brown in ''O. pulchellum'', while they are typically black in ''O. nigripes''. ''O. pulchellum'' typically has no spines on the inner carinae of the hind femora, which distinguishes it from another relative, Orchelimum carin ...

Introduced Species
An introduced species, alien species, exotic species, adventive species, immigrant species, foreign species, non-indigenous species, or non-native species is a species living outside its native distributional range, but which has arrived there by human activity, directly or indirectly, and either deliberately or accidentally. Non-native species can have various effects on the local ecosystem. Introduced species that become established and spread beyond the place of introduction are considered naturalized. The process of human-caused introduction is distinguished from biological colonization, in which species spread to new areas through "natural" (non-human) means such as storms and rafting. The Latin expression neobiota captures the characteristic that these species are ''new'' biota to their environment in terms of established biological network (e.g. food web) relationships. Neobiota can further be divided into neozoa (also: neozoons, sing. neozoon, i.e. animals) and n ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
