We live in SW Idaho, high mtn. desert. We have an insect of the grasshopper-cricket configuration, except that it has a 1" long, tubular ovipositor, large 1 1/4" torso. Coloration is lightly striped of a common grasshopper colors. This is the second one we've see in these parts in two weeks...no developed wings, but has indications that it is an orthoptera. Anyone with knowledge/suggestions as to genus, species, common name? Thanks.

Thanks! Great photography and quite a collection here. I am in Florida and am always struggling to ID new grasshoppers and their nymphs that I find. This is a great help.
Ed 20-Oct-2015 15:44
thanks for the site. I am starting to identify the grasshoppers at my farm near Gainesville Texas however I would like to have a key to help identify all the species. Can you direct me to a key to the Texas grasshoppers?

Wonderful collection! Reminds us that we share this planet with an enormous amount of other living things. I have a photo of what I believe to be either a Dissidents Carolina or Reimer Tropics pallid up tennis nymph. Send me an email if you are interested in adding him.

Hi, I found two grasshoppers in a bush and one is green blue white brown altogether on all the parts on the body. I also found out the second one is like a tree. Brown and white all over. I was wondering if you could tell me what species they are? Address: Australia Brisbane eight mile plain QLD from grace or 8 years old.

Hello, I found an insect inside our bathroom..it has fourteen pairs of legs and an elongated body, looks like a small centipede (about one inch) but its legs are longer and thinner...this is the first time I saw this kind of insect...perhaps you can help me identify this creature...I am from the Philippines...

Well done.

Hello, I caught a grasshopper in Vancouver, BC. It looks quite different than the pictures shown in your website. It might be a nymph, but it is already end of August, so it should be a fully grown grasshopper or it will die because of the cold. It also has two tails. I want to know if this grasshopper is male or female. Could I send you a picture of my grasshopper? Thank you!
