http://en.wikiped...parallelus Chorthippus parallelus is told from similar species by the approximately parallel nature of the bars (pronotal side-keels) What does that mean "keels" ? The outer most 2 vertical lines (out of 3) on prothorax, here:? I have some samples where these keels are absent ? like this: http://agrozoo.ne...9b6b9ffb5f "Keels" - must this be color marked or even just brake in surface ? See forinstance this:http://www.flickr...576836571/ Cant decide what it is, nor on any other image on net of Oedipoda caerulescens for thtat matter. Are keels straight, V opened, absent ? Any latin naming for those "keels" ? Making grasshoper key ... Edited by BubikolRamios on 10-09-2013 21:57 highly searchable nature photo galery --> http://agrozoo.ne....jsp?l2=en |

Here's a photo I took recently of a specimen of Chorthippus brunneus, a species described as having sharply angled keels on the pronotum. I've annotated the feature in question after a quick session in PhotoShop. Hope this helps! |
