Neo-sex chromosome diversity in Neotropical melanopline grasshoppers (Melanoplinae, Acrididae)
(Springer, 2010-04)
We report the results of a study on the neo-sex chromosome systems of six Neotropical Melanoplinae species for contributing to a better understanding of their origin and behaviour of these systems. Our analyses included ...
A test of Allen's rule in ectotherms: the case of two south American Melanopline Grasshoppers (Orthoptera: Acrididae) with partially overlapping geographic ranges
(Sociedade Brasileira de Entomologia, 2008)
Species richness, range size, and wing development in South American melanopline grasshoppers (Orthoptera, Acrididae)
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2020-08)
1. Wing development can influence biogeographic patterns, and much debate has been focused on the ecological conditions that favour secondary wing reductions in insects. Although grasshoppers are mostly flight-capable, ...
Postembryonic development and consumption of the melanoplines Dichroplus elongatus Giglio-Tos and Dichroplus maculipennis (Blanchard) (Orhtoptera: Acrididae: Melanoplinae) under laboratory conditions
(Sociedade Entomológica do Brasil, 2011-03)
Dichroplus maculipennis (Blanchard) and D. elongatus Giglio-Tos are two of the most important melanoplines in Argentina, both ecologically and economically. The postembryonic development and forage loss (consumption of ...
Rensch's rule is not verifiedin melanopline grasshoppers (Acrididae)
(Insect Biodiversity Research Group, 2013-12)
Sexual size dimorphism (SSD) is almost universal in animals. Rensch?s rule proposes that SSD increases with increasing average body size in taxa where males are larger than females (male- biased SSD; MBSSD) and decreases ...
A test of Allen’s rule in ectotherms: the case of two south American melanopline grasshoppers (orthoptera: acrididae) with partially overlapping geographic rangesUn test de la regla de Allen en ectotermos: el caso de dos saltamontes melanoplinos (orthoptera: acrididae) sudamericanos con distribuciones geográficas parcialmente solapadas
(Sociedade Entomológica do Brasil, 2008-12)
We studied the geographic variation of three morphometric characters in relation to body size in two South American grasshoppers (Acrididae), Dichroplus vittatus Bruner and D. pratensis Bruner to test Allen’s rule in these ...

Naturalized, newly-associated microsporidium continues causing epizootics and expanding its host range
(Protozoological Society Affiliated with the Russian Academy of Sciences, 2020-04-23)
Examination of grasshoppers sampled at two sites, one in western Pampas and one in northwestern Patagonia, both in Argentina, revealed the occurrence of two new epizootic events of the allochthonous microsporidium Paranosema ...
Evolutionary recycling of sex chromosomes in Neotropical Melanoplinae
(University of Central Florida, 2014-09)
Orthopterans are a fascinating group of insects in multiple ways. My own research focuses on the evolutionary relationships of South American acridoid grasshoppers with emphasis in the Melanoplinae. In this respect, evidences ...
