Age-related mandible abrasion in the groundhopper Tetrix tenuicornis (Tetrigidae, Orthoptera)

Original language description

A study was conducted to determine whether the mandibles of the detrito-/bryophagous groundhopper Tetrix tenuicornis are subject to mechanical wear as a result of feeding, as is the case for grasshoppers that feed on silica-rich grasses. Abrasion was evaluated by measuring the length and width of the 3rd incisor and length of the 4th incisor in adults of different ages collected under natural conditions during one season. Although T. tenuicornis and other groundhoppers avoid feeding on grasses, we foundthat mandible abrasion increased with T. tenuicornis age.
