Abstract: | Neuropeptides of the taxa Periplaneta (Blattidae) and Lucihormetica (Blaberidae) were analysed from single specimens by means of mass spectrometry. The resulting mass spectra revealed a clear differentiation of the respective species by peptide hormone mass fingerprints. This is the first attempt to catalogue neuropeptides of cockroaches for taxonomic purposes. |
