Hi all
Just for the record, this species was renamed
> Phylogenetic analysis based on large subunit rRNAsequence has shown that, in addition to the ‘‘true’’ Nosema/Vairimorpha group (a group of insect microsporidia related to Nosema bombycis), there is a group of unrelated Nosema species which includes N. locustae and N. kingi. ... We here propose the designation of Paranosema grylli and Paranosema locustae, respectively for N. grylli and N. locustae which are distantly related to ‘‘true’’ Nosema clade (2003).
It interesting that this species feeds on the fat bodies
> Paranosema locustae is a spore-forming pathogen of the adipose tissue of orthopterans that was isolated, selected, and developed in the USA as a long-term microbial control agent of grasshoppers (2005).
PLB
note: Nosema bombycis was the first identified; it is a pathogen of the silk worm (Bombyx mori).
