Fig. 4 in Comparative Morphology of the Orthopteran Thorax With a Discussion of Phylogenetically Relevant Characters

Description

Fig. 4. Morphology of mesospina in representatives of Ensifera (A–L) and Caelifera (M). (A–D) Volume rendering. (E–M) 3D reconstruction. Orthoptera bear a stalked mesospina (green asterisk).The vast majority of Ensifera is characterized by a mesospina that bears paired dorsolateral* and ventrolateral processi, only Comicus calcaris has a single lateral process (F). Whereas the dorsolateral processus* is tapered in most Ensifera, the dorsolateral process* in Gryllus bimaculatus is knob-like (E). Some taxa have an unpaired posterior process, marked by pink asterisk.The mesospina of Stenobothrus lineatus is characterized by a distal plate that lacks processi. st2 (mesosternum), st3 (metasternum).
