Insect India - Diaphanogryllacris Sp. Cricket
Diaphanogryllacris sp. is a large cricket sometimes known as 'leaf-folding crickets,' belonging to the family Gryllacrididae and subfamily Gryllacridinae. These crickets are found in the Indo-Malayan region. The genus Diaphanogryllacris, described by Karny in 1937, consists of crickets mostly found in Southeast Asia. Very little is known about their biology and habits. The cricket in the photo is a specimen of an unidentified species of Diaphanogryllacris sp. This cricket was observed eating food leftovers such as chicken flesh on a bone, banana peels, and other items on a plate in a house at Tehatta, West Bengal, India, on 01/06/2024.
