Atractomorpha (grasshopper)
''Atractomorpha'' is a genus in the Pyrgomorphidae, a family of grasshoppers, found in Africa, Asia, and Australia. Biology Not much is written about the biology of the ''Atractomorpha'', but they are herbivores typical of the Orthoptera, so it is understandable that some species seem to be minor pests in gardens and that some, such as ''Atractomorpha psittacina'' and ''Atractomorpha bedeli'', are significant pests in rice. As with many grasshoppers in various families, the males are smaller than the females and ride on them long before copulation. They remain there during the period in which the female achieves sexual receptiveness. Similar strategies are common in vertebrates such as some amphibians, as well as various invertebrates, where the males attempt to keep rivals from mating with the female. At least some ''Atractomorpha'' species also share a habit with various generally sedentary Orthoptera such as some Pamphagidae, of producing their excreta in the form of rela ...

Atractomorpha Crenulata
''Atractomorpha crenulata'', commonly known as the tobacco grasshopper, is a species of grasshopper in the subfamily ''Pyrgomorphinae'', found in Asia. Taxonomy ''A. crenulata'' is a member of the genus '' Atractomorpha'', which is part of family Pyrgomorphidae. Johan Christian Fabricius, in his 1793 book ''Supplementum Entomologiae Systematicae'', recorded the species as ''Truxalis crenulatus''; it was later designated ''A. crenulata crenulata'' by William Forsell Kirby in 1910. As such, ''A. crenulata'' is the type species of its genus, which was described by Henri Louis Frédéric de Saussure in 1862. Three subspecies of ''A. crenulata'' are known. * ''A. c. crenulata'' ( Fabricius, 1793) ** Synonyms: ''A. c. consobrina'', ''A. c. obscura'', ''A. c. porrecta'', ''A. c. scaber'' * ''A. c. fumosa'' ( Bolívar, 1905) * ''A. c. prasina'' ( Bolívar, 1905) Description ''A. crenulata'' is greenish in color, with well-developed tegmina and rosy wings. The grasshoppers' bodies are me ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
