These pro wings might indicate that this specimen is a nynph (not yet adult) and has one molt to go. However some species of crickets never grow full wings and they include bush crickets, raspy crickets and the famous weta from New Zealand. http://unhmagazine.unh.edu/f04/classroomview_2.html http://bugguide.net/node/view/423408 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stenopelmatus http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhaphidophoridae http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raspy_cricket
