Bird grasshopper
Schistocerca sp.
6.45506, 3.39418
Field Notes
Description:
Bird grasshopper metamorphosis (nymph to adult).
The same grasshopper was observed on the same plant for several days during which the metamorphosis took place.
Habitat:
It literally lived on the foliage of the (host) plant- feeding, excreting and basking on it.
Notes:
The grasshopper is known to flash its two-row spiked hind legs when alarmed. It stays poised to give its assailant a brutal kick, or to simply hop off.
