A uniquely female behavior in grasshoppers, oviposition, is driven by neural circuitry in the terminal abdominal segments of the female's central nervous system. Because it is known that the embryonic pattern of neuroblasts is sexually monomorphic in these animals, we were interested to know how the

## Abstract Does oxygen delivery become more challenging for insects as they increase in size? To partially test this hypothesis, we used quantitative light and electron microscopy to estimate the oxygen delivery capacity for two steps of tracheal oxygen delivery within the metathoracic femur (jump

## Abstract The development of diet‐induced phenotypic differences in numbers of sensilla on the antennae of the grasshopper __Schistocerca americana__ was studied using the exuviae produced at each molt. This made it possible to follow changes within an individual insect. In the first instar, inse
