“…Throughout the entire development cycle, the animals were kept under constant microclimatic and photoperiodic conditions: the mean circadian relative humidity of 60%, the mean circadian temperature of 26°C, the light/dark phase ratio-12 h light : 12 h dark [7,8]. Air mixing occurred every 45 min.…”

“…Singing of conspecies songs (the calling song) in males and active search for a partner in females with subsequent courtship, copulation and oviposition characterize the reproductive period of the imaginal ontogenesis. Thus, it was demonstrated that forms of acoustic behavior of other cricket species known from literature (see, for instance, [7]) also were clearly expressed under conditions of the year-round culture in G. argentinus [8].…”

“…As noted in several works, various forms of the imaginal behavior are not formed at once after the imaginal molt, but are realized gradually, in the course of individual development of crickets (see, for instance, [7,8]). According to data by Bocharova-Messner and Chudakova (data on the cricket Acheta domestica L., 1968), the imaginal stage of crickets includes 2 phases (periods) of development-the periods of expansion and reproduction.…”

“…As established for crickets Gryllus bimaculatus De Geer, the main stages of development and forms of acoustic behavior revealed under field ZHEMCHUZHNIKOV, KNYAZEV of acoustic behavior as well as by a set, ratio, and value of directional motor reactions (DMR) [8][9][10]. These forms include passive (the stand still reaction) and active (the escape reaction) protective behavior.…”

Data are presented about the development of reproductive and defense behavior of noncopulated female crickets Gryllus argentinus Sauss. in the beginning of the imaginal ontogeny. The character of interaction of females with "virtual" males (the "supporting ball" method-"trackball") was studied. The forms of female motor reactions to models of intraspecies male sound signalsthe calling and aggressive songs-are described and analyzed. The character of the development of female acoustic behavior is described as judged by change in the forms of motor reactions in the course of the imaginal ontogeny. It is shown that immediately after the imaginal molt the reproductive behavior is not formed yet but it matures gradually within a few days. At the early stages of the imaginal ontogeny passive defense behavior is found to be most clearly expressed.

Ontogenetic and static allometry of hind femur length in the cricketGryllus bimaculatus(Orthoptera: Gryllidae) with implications for evo-devo of morphological scaling

The evolution of morphological allometry or scaling is a long-standing enigma in biology. Three types of allometric relationships have been defined: static, ontogenetic and evolutionary allometry. However, the theory of the interrelationship between these three types of allometry have not been tested in Orthopterans and to a lesser extent in hemimetabolous insects. Here, the ontogenetic allometry of hind femur length in the cricket Gryllus bimaculatus was observed to be slightly positive as compared with a negative allometric relationship for Orthopterans in general, while the instar-specific static allometries were highly variable. The findings give support for the size-grain hypothesis in Orthoptera and indicate that ontogenetic allometries may not predict evolutionary allometries. The current model for the developmental basis of allometry derived from holometabolous insects is extended into a phylogenetic context and the potential of G. bimaculatus and other Orthopterans for further experiments of evo-devo of morphological scaling is discussed.

Postembryonic development of the two-spotted field cricket (Gryllus bimaculatus): a staging system

The two-spotted field cricket Gryllus bimaculatus has emerged as a central model for studies on insect development, regeneration, and physiology. G. bimaculatus has the most sophisticated functional genetic toolkit of any hemimetabolous insect, making it a foremost model to understand the evolutionary developmental biology and comparative physiology of insects. However, the morphology and stages of postembryonic development have never been comprehensively reported. Here, 8 morphologically defined stages are described. Size, coloration, and the morphology of wing buds, hind tibial spines, and the ovipositor are the best landmarks for staging. The stages correspond to the 8-12 moult-based instars present in the literature. The staging system aims to standardise studies on the postembryonic development of G. bimaculatus and serve as a point of reference for delineating interspecific postembryonic homologies within Orthoptera.
