| That winter, the night we built our first big fire, we also hatched out about a million katydids, or as some folk call them, camel crickets. |
|
| It is a mournful silence, broken only by the eternal singing of the katydids. |
|
| Members of the grasshopper family, including crickets, locusts, and katydids, hear with small disks near one of the front leg joints. |
|
| Crickets and katydids make noise by rubbing their forewings together. |
|
| Short-winged female meadow katydids discriminate among tremulation signals of males to choose a larger male, even in the absence of a signalling male. |
|
| From every quarter throbbed peepers and katydids and locusts. |
|
| This Caedicia is one of at least twenty new species of leaf katydids found on the Muller Range survey. |
|
| I kept tadpoles and frogs, raised orphaned birds successfully, learned to tell time by the sun, and the temperature by the rate at which crickets and katydids chirped. |
|
| Scientists group cockroaches, praying mantids, grasshoppers, crickets, katydids, stick insects and some other insects together as orthopteroid insects. |
|
| The 85 species of Hawaiian orthopterans include four distinct genera of crickets and katydids comprising about 45 of the 85 species. |
|
| In some orthopterans, particularly crickets and katydids, the entire spermatophore is attached to the female. |
|
| The status of both the superspecies taxa of katydids considered herein has been unclear until now. |
|
| Crickets, katydids, and grasshoppers are known for the songs they produce using stridulatory mechanisms, and research concerned with song production is an active field. |
|
| July can only shrug,after a night's caterwaul of katydids. |
|
| Even without seeing the crickets, grasshoppers, cicadas and katydids, we hear them shrilling in this season and trust that they're the tiny living gargoyles entomologists claim. |
|
| Some katydids are active predators of insects. |
|
| And because transmitters can now be made as light as two-tenths of a gram, scientists can tag and track katydids, orchid bees, monarch butterflies, even plant seeds. |
