Ancient trans-Atlantic flight explains locust biogeography: molecular phylogenetics of Schistocerca.

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 7 Apr 2006

Lovejoy N R, Mullen S P, Sword G A, Chapman R F, Harrison R G

Abstract excerpt

The desert locust (Schistocerca gregaria) has been an important agricultural pest at least since biblical times. Although the ecology, physiology and behaviour of this insect species have been well characterized, its biogeographical origins and evolutionary history are more obscure. Schistocerca...
