Question: Who is the "banana cricket"?

Community and Forum → Taxonomy. Classification → Question: Who is the "banana cricket"?

PVOzerski, 10.10.2005 14:58

This insect is one of the most widely distributed species of the Gryllus genus in the culture, clearly from the American species (according to experts I know). But no one tried to define it to the species (as for me, I didn't get around to raising the literature on the genus and entering the morphology of Gryllidae). Walking on the Internet and" in real life " opinions that it is G. assimilis or G. argentinus. they are doubtful, since the call signals of these species that are not produced by the "banana cricket" are not similar in the literature. Even in argentinus, despite the general similarity, according to the works of Leroy, the pulse repetition period is different. Or did Leroy define her material incorrectly? A copy of G. argentinus with the author's label, which is available in ZINA, does not look too similar to the "banana", apparently, the species is still different. In general, does anyone have any thoughts or information about the species of this animal? And then in the bioacoustic article you will have to write Gryllus sp. or anything like frown.gifthis

Well, genitals, a sinful thing, I did not look at them frown.gif. Moreover, since Zinovsky argentinus is "not gutted", it is necessary to dissect it. But in general, the impression is that if no one has identified this cricket, then a lot of work is required. You can't get rid of some monographs, you'll have to raise scattered articles, and it's good if you don't need standard copies. In general, not yet.

In general, it was always considered that Gryllus assimilis. True, I did not see the acoustics of it, and I did not define it morphologicallyfrown.gif...

Assimilis - it doesn't look like it. The University of Florida website has a sample:
http://creatures.ifas.ufl.edu/misc/crickets/audiosp.html
There are parcels of 6-7 pulses. And ours sing 2-3-pulse. Unless the Americans are confused in their views or there are acoustic doubles.

It seems to me that it is necessary to check. Very popular cricket in the culture and such plugs frown.gifAnd in the ZINa assimilis is? Similar?

10.10.2005 21:59, PVOzerski

I'll take a look on occasion. In the meantime, I watched only argentinus, and then habitus.

That singing assimilis, which is on the link-does not look like
the "banana cricket", which I recorded in my cage
Try to find out in the zoo (Moscow. and St. Petersburg).
At the Department of Entomology of Moscow State University, I was told that "they forgot the name,
but it seems to be some kind of Teleogryllus." I've forgotten the source of this
information :- ) Maybe an Insect Expert will help?

It's not Teleogryllus, it's Gryllus. But maybe under this name "walk" in the culture of different species?

I would ask A. V. Gorokhov in ZINA

25.10.2005 13:04, PVOzerski

I already asked smile.gifif he had ever (regardless of my interest) looked at these animals. He said that it was from the American group of species of the genus Gryllus-and all frown.gif

That's it, the epic is over!

By the way, not without the help of V. Y. Vedenina, who kindly provided the material to American and Canadian colleagues who dealt with the problem of stopping epizootics among crickets in American cultures. As a result, they wrote this article::

DAVID B. WEISSMAN, DAVID A. GRAY, HANH THI PHAM & PETER TIJSSEN. Billions and billions sold: Pet-feeder crickets (Orthoptera: Gryllidae), commercial cricket farms, an epizootic densovirus, and government regulations make for a potential disaster // Zootaxa 3504: 67–88 (2012).

In this article, the "banana cricket" is described as Gryllus locorojo Weissman and Gray n. sp.

By the way, did you check out the name of the species? It seems to be translated from Spanish as "red-headed jerk". True, the "Romanization" is somewhat dubious frown.gif. However, Spanish is a Romance language, after all.

Locorojo? We will use wink.gif...

Well, Google translated it as "crazy red", and in the original article "crazy red".
