Abstract excerpt
Trimerotropis pallidipennis is a New World grasshopper whose South-American populations are polymorphic for six pericentric inversions. Previous work has demonstrated that the frequences of these inversions correlate with climatic variables, and hence a possible adaptive pattern was put forward. In the present work we analysed a sample of a natural population of T pallidipennis to ascertain whether the...
