klausriede commented 6 months ago

https://orthoptera.speciesfile.org/otus/820707/overview Heteracris herbacea is the type species of the genus Heteracris. It appears in the Heteracris desc. list as superspecies . The superspecies page does not contain any info (why superspecies, specimen etc) . I think the type species for the genus should be appear in the list of descendants in correct alphabetical order https://orthoptera.speciesfile.org/otus/820638/overview

Heteracris herbacea is among the descendents of the superspecies herbacea (a species group in the old OSF). The superspecies should perhaps be listed first instead of being integrated in the alphabethical order according to "supersp."
