1 Exoskeleton vs. Endoskeleton: biomechanical trade-offs.. Ratio: surface area (square) volume (cube) Hercules beetle (Dynastes hercules) strength of skeleton Shrew (Sorex sp.) a giant spider size of organism Exoskeleton vs. Endoskeleton The exception proves the rule, in aquatic arthropods. but this is not possible) 1
2 Other advantages of the exoskeleton The necessity of molting allows complete metamorphosis The cuticle includes a lipid monolayer The cuticle is impact resistant What about six legs?? Hexapoda may not be monophyletic Hexapoda (six legs) Insecta Dicondylia Pterygota Neoptera Eumetabola (** Exopterygota ) Crustacea? Myriapoda? Collembola Protura Diplura Archaeognatha Zygentoma Ephemeroptera Odonata Plecoptera Polyneoptera** Paurometabola (orthopteroids) Endopterygota (Holometabola) Paraneoptera (hemipteroids)** 2
3 Three classes of Entognathous hexapods: Collembola, Protura, Diplura Class Collembola (springtails): Class Diplura: oral cone (collophore) Class Protura: 12 Entognatha: Class Collembola (springtails, snow fleas) 6000 species families 4 subclasses (Lower Devonian) Not a true insect: 6-segmented abdomen 3
4 Entognatha: Class Protura ( proturans ) 730 species 3-8 families 2 subclasses (Devonian) Not an insect: no antennae anamorphosis Entognatha: Class Diplura ( diplurans ) Not an insect: antennal flagellum w/ intrinsic muscles glandular cerci 800 species 5-9 families 2 subclasses (Carboniferous) 4
5 The three major evolutionary innovations of the Class Insecta: wings, wing-folding, & complete metamorphosis ( 27 orders, total) Hexapoda Insecta (Ectognatha) Dicondylia 1. Pterygota = aquatic immatures 2. Neoptera complete metamorphosis Eumetabola (** Exopterygota ) Crustacea? Myriapoda? Collembola Protura Diplura Archaeognatha Zygentoma Ephemeroptera Odonata Plecoptera Polyneoptera** Paurometabola (orthopteroids) 3. Endopterygota (Holometabola) Paraneoptera (hemipteroids)** 3 ocelli order Archaeognatha (= Microcoryphia, Machiloidea) compound eye antenna cercus maxillary palp (7-segmented) labial palp (3-seg) order Zygentoma (Thysanura) style on coxa exsertile vescicle maxillary palp abdominal styli (seg. 2-9) median caudal filament (MCF) ovipositor molar region incisor region mandibles (mono- vs dicondylic) condyle incisor region molar region condyle condyle style cercus median caudal filament median caudal filament style (8 & 9) ovipositor cercus subclass Apterygota 5
6 Apterygota: Archaeognatha (bristletails) 350 species, 2 families; Devonian (?) leg-like maxillary & labial palps Monura? 5 mm Permian Dasyleptidae (Elmo fauna, Kansas) median caudal filament Families: Meinertellidae & Machilidae Apterygota: order Zygentoma (silverfish & firebrats) 370 species, 3-5 families 2 condyles Thermobia sp. Lepisma sp. Tricholepidion gertschi lives w/ w.na. carpenter ants) 6
7 Apterygota are probably paraphyletic, not monophyletic ( Apterygota (blue bar) is probably not a clade) outgroup (monocondylic) dicondylic mandible? Monura (extinct; condyly uncertain) Archaeognatha (=Microcoryphia) Zygentoma (=Thysanura) Dicondylia Pterygota (other insects) monophyletic: an ancestral species and all its descendants (a clade). paraphyletic: a monophyletic group from which one or more subsidiary clades (monophyletic groups) is excluded. The origin of wings: Paleoptera Hexapoda Insecta Dicondylia Pterygota = aquatic immatures Neoptera complete metamorphosis Eumetabola (** Exopterygota ) Crustacea? Myriapoda? Collembola Protura Diplura Archaeognatha Zygentoma Ephemeroptera Odonata Plecoptera Polyneoptera** Paurometabola (orthopteroids) Endopterygota (Holometabola) Paraneoptera (hemipteroids)** 7
8 The origin of wings: Paleoptera Ancestral groups all have aquatic immatures: Paleoptera Neoptera Holometabola Ephemeroptera Odonata Plecoptera Megaloptera Pterygota, Paleoptera: Ephemeroptera (mayflies) > 3000 species, 25 families; suborders & superfamilies uncertain Adult adult naiad (nymph) Naiad (immature) Ancestral features: 11-segmented abdomen cerci & median caudal filament 3 ocelli post-adult molt paired genitalia (!) (as in Archaeognatha & Zygentoma) 8
9 Mayflies aquatic immatures Nymph/naiad: subaquatic long-lived (vs. adult) tracheal gills morphologically diverse Permian mayflies: Protereisma sp. (Protereismatidae) Naiad (immature) (after Kukalova) long antennae 5-segmented tarsus nearly full wing venation subequal wings 9 pairs of gills Adult (after Carpenter) 10th MCF 9

13 Phylogenetic hypotheses for Paleoptera I. Paleoptera are monophyletic (Hennig) Outgroup Neoptera (all other winged insects) Odonata Paleoptera Ephemeroptera II. Paleoptera are paraphyletic (Kristensen) (Boudreaux) Outgroup Outgroup Ephemeroptera Odonata Paleoptera Paleoptera Odonata Ephemeroptera Neoptera (all other winged insects) Neoptera (all others) The Origin of Wing-Folding: Neoptera Hexapoda Insecta Dicondylia Pterygota = aquatic immatures Neoptera complete metamorphosis Eumetabola (** Exopterygota ) Crustacea? Myriapoda? Collembola Protura Diplura Archaeognatha Zygentoma Ephemeroptera Odonata Plecoptera Polyneoptera** Paurometabola (orthopteroids) Endopterygota (Holometabola) Paraneoptera (hemipteroids)** 13
