Experimental evidence for density-determined wing dimorphism in two bush-crickets (Ensifera: Tettigoniidae)
Macroptery is common in many species of Orthoptera, but the causes are still discussed. Besides the assumption that macroptery is genetically determined, there is evidence that wing dimorphism is induced by environmental factors, particularly population density. However, most of the research is on p...
