Background: Hemolymph flow patterns in opaque insects have never been directly visualized due to the lack of an appropriate imaging technique. The required spatial and temporal resolutions, together with the lack of contrast between the hemolymph and the surrounding soft tissue, are major challenges

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
