Sternorrhyncha Mantodea Grylloblattaria Heteroptera Auchenorrhyncha Phasmida Anoplura Isoptera Holometabola Mallophaga Blattaria Zoraptera Psocoptera Orthoptera Thysanoptera Dermaptera Hemipteroids Plecoptera Neoptera
Zoraptera • Tropical • Live in rotting wood • Eat fungal hyphae, tiny arthropods • Poorly studied
Isoptera - termites Caste system within termite colonies Worker Soldier Queen Workers tend the colony, gather food Soldiers cannot feed themselves, they have a nozzle-shaped snout for exuding noxious chemicals; defend colony from ant attack. Queens add a set of ovaries with each molt → very high fecundity (1000’s/day); >1 Queen/colony; kings resemble large worker and mate repeatedly with queens
Termites • Several kinds of termites based on diet • Subterranean* (live up to 20 ft underground) • Soil-feeding • Drywood* • Dampwood • Grass-feeding * Types that infest and eat human buildings
Termites • All termites eat cellulose • Cellulose has high energy, but difficult to digest • Gut bacteria have cellulase • Gut protozoa have symbiotic bacteria in their guts • Some “higher” termites (subterranean) can produce cellulase, but they still also have a rich gut flora to aid in cellulose digestion
Mantodea – the mantids • Raptorial first legs (“praying”) (also preying!) • Mobile neck joint • 3 extra eye on top of head • Sexual cannibalism: females eats male during copulation to get food and enhance sexual performance (tonus and locomotion of abdominal activity)
Blattaria – the cockroaches • Aka blattodea • Have mobile neck joint • A few feed on wood and have endosymbiotic flagellates (like isopterans) • Fast runners!
Sternorrhyncha Mantodea Grylloblattaria Heteroptera Auchenorrhyncha Phasmida Anoplura Isoptera Holometabola Mallophaga Blattaria Zoraptera Psocoptera Orthoptera Thysanoptera Dermaptera Hemipteroids Plecoptera Neoptera
Hemipteroids • Have piercing, sucking mouthparts
Hemipteroids • In days of old… • O Hemiptera, O Homoptera • Current thinking: • O Heteroptera = true bugs • O Sternorryncha = aphids, scale insects • O Auchenorryncha = leaf hoppers, tree hoppers, plant hoppers, cicadas, spittlebugs • Many hemipteroids are important crop pests
Sternorryncha Both aphids and scale insects are important crop pests Both form mutualistic interactions with ants (produce honeydew in exchange for protection)
Psocoptera: bark lice, book lice • Live in humid crevices and feed on fungi (under bark, old musty books)
Other lice • O Anoplura – sucking lice of mammals • Often host-specific e.g. human crab louse, human head louse
Other lice • O Mallophaga – chewing lice • All non-anopluran lice (polyphyletic) • Mostly found on birds
Thysanoptera -thrips • Suctorial mouthparts • Common in flowers (serve as pollinators) • Vectors of disease on some crops • Fringed wings
Sternorrhyncha Mantodea Grylloblattaria Heteroptera Auchenorrhyncha Phasmida Anoplura Isoptera Holometabola Mallophaga Blattaria Zoraptera Psocoptera Orthoptera Thysanoptera Dermaptera Hemipteroids Plecoptera Neoptera
Holometabula • Development: larva to pupa to adult
