Grasshoppers that you can find in the spring The club-horned grasshopper is tan or grey. It has knobs on the end of each antenna. It sings by rubbing the back legs against the forewings. Grasshoppers have two pairs wings. The two front ones are hard covers for the hindwings that are used to fly. move the mouse arrow on me, and you computere might be able to find a hidden message. The velvet-striped grasshopper is small and has a pointed head. It has two small, dark stripes. It is called velvet-striped because the stripes and surface look soft and fuzzy. The brown-spotted range grasshopper is often the first grasshopper found in the spring. It has small triangles on the back and on the back legs. Songbirds catch these grasshoppers in the spring, to feed nestlings (baby birds).

This publication outlines non-chemical strategies, including cultural and biological controls, available to the grower. Table of Contents Life Cycle Weather Cultural Controls Tillage ... Row Covers Although the grasshopper occurs throughout the continental U.S., most of the damage it causes is restricted to "sub-humid, semi-arid" areas, extending from Montana and Minnesota to Texas and New Mexico ( Life Cycle There are three stages in a grasshopper's life cycle, the egg, nymph (the young grasshopper), and the adult. Most grasshopper species over-winter as eggs, which are laid in clusters in late summer and early fall and hatch in spring, when soil temperatures warm up.

The two groups are usually considered suborders of the Orthoptera. Attempts to create a separate order for the two suborders Caelifera and Ensifera (e.g. Kevan 1986, in which Ensifera = Grylloptera) have not found general entomological acceptance (see Discussion of Phylogenetic Relationships). Characteristics The name Orthoptera is derived from "orthos" meaning "straight" and "pteron" = "wing."

Grasshoppers Grasshoppers are insects. There are 2 kinds of grasshoppers; short-horned grasshoppers which have short antennae, and long-horned grasshoppers which have long antenna. Grasshoppers live in most parts of the world, except where it is very cold. A grasshopper's body Their bodies have three main parts: the head, the thorax and the abdomen. A hard shell called an exoskeleton covers the body. 'Exoskeleton' means 'outside skeleton' because insects do not have a skeleton inside their bodies like mammals do. Two antennae (feelers) grow from a grasshopper's head. Grasshoppers have five eyes and can see to the front, to the side, and to the back. Grasshoppers have six legs with strong leg muscles. DID YOU KNOW? A large grasshoppers can jump a distance of about about 20 times the length of its body. Most grasshoppers have two pairs of wings. Grasshoppers breathe through holes, called spiracles, along the sides of the abdomen and the thorax. Food Most kinds of grasshopper eat plants, but some long-horned grasshoppers also eat dead animals or catch and eat other insects. Grasshoppers can be a pest to farmers when they eat farm crops.

Grasshopper Melanoplus femurrubrum (Thomas). This is a cosmopolitan insect. Many species damage forage crops in South Carolina. Grasshoppers feed by eating the foliage of the plants. Injury may vary from a ragged plant to one with only the stem left. In South Carolina the winter is passed in the egg stage. The eggs are laid in the soil. In early spring the eggs hatch and the young grasshoppers, which resemble the adult except for the absence of wings, hatch. They are usually full grown by the middle of August. They continue to feed until frost. Eggs are laid during the latter part of September and October.

Special Reports SERVICES Video E-mail Newsletters CNNtoGO SEARCH Web CNN.com Sudan grasshopper swarm 'kills 11' Story Tools YOUR E-MAIL ALERTS Sudan or Create your own Manage alerts What is this? KHARTOUM, Sudan (Reuters) Eleven people died and thousands were taken to hospital with breathing difficulties after a swarm of grasshoppers invaded a town in central Sudan, the government-owned Al-Anbaa newspaper reported on Saturday. The paper cited health authorities in Wad Medani, capital of the central al-Jezira state, as saying an epidemic of what they considered to be asthma had afflicted 1,685 people since October 22, all of whom had since been cured. The authorities also said 11 people had died from the breathing difficulties. "The appearance of the epidemic is linked to the unprecedented increase in the grasshopper insects," the daily quoted the health authorities as saying. Resident Joseph Mogum in Wad Medani, about 110 miles (176 km) southeast of the capital Khartoum, said the grasshoppers gave off a strong smell which caused breathing problems. The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organisation said on October 21 that swarms of locusts were threatening crops in northeastern Sudan, Mauritania and northern Niger, but it was not clear if it was the same species that was affecting Wad Medani in central Sudan.

97. Grasshopper Biology And Management Each season grasshoppers are a threat to field crops, forage crops, Young grasshoppers are referred to as nymphs. They are similar to adults in general http://www.ext.nodak.edu/extpubs/plantsci/pests/e272-1.htm

North Dakota State University NDSU Extension Service Grasshopper Biology and Management E-272 (Revised), February 1997 Phillip A. Glogoza , Extension Entomologist Michael J. Weiss , Professor of Entomology Each season grasshoppers are a threat to field crops, forage crops, pastures and rangeland in North Dakota. The most severe infestations are likely to occur during seasons when the weather is hot and dry. Scouting should begin in May and early June, and producers should be prepared to start management measures when young hopper populations reach threatening levels. Contents: Life Cycle Damage Natural Enemies Estimating Grasshopper Infestations ... Insecticidal Control Recommendations Life Cycle Figure 1. Grasshopper life cycle. Grasshopper eggs are laid beneath the soil surface in pod-like structures that the female deposits from her abdomen. Each egg pod consists of 20 to 120 elongated eggs securely cemented together; the whole mass is somewhat eggshaped and covered with soil. A female grasshopper produces from eight to 25 egg masses. The species of grasshoppers that cause major crop loss overwinter in the egg stage, although a few other noneconomic species overwinter as nymphs. In the Northern Plains, grasshopper egg hatch normally begins in late April to early May. The peak hatch occurs about mid June and the hatch is usually nearing completion by late June. Cool and extremely dry springs may delay the hatch, allowing it to continue into July.

It is 1-1/2 to 1-3/4 inches long, yellowish, with brown and black markings and distinct chevron-like black markings on the hind legs. The adults of migratory and red-legged grasshoppers are about 1 inch longreddish-brown above and yellow beneath, with red-tinged hind legs. The nymphs are wingless, but otherwise resemble the adults. The elongated, brown-to-orange eggs (glued together in masses) form a pod in uncultivated soil,usually 1 to 2 inches below the surface. The differential grasshoppers winter as eggs and do not appear as adults until summer. Click on image for larger version Figure 1.

Orthoptera Crickets and Grasshoppers Click on either picture to receive a full-sized version! The name Orthoptera is sometimes used for all the insects in the "orthopteroid" assemblage, including roaches , earwigs, mantises, and many others. However, it is more usual to restrict the Orthoptera (Greek for "straight-wing") to the crickets, grasshoppers, katydids, and their kin. These insects are instantly recognizable by their long hind legs, which are modified for jumping. Most orthopterans can generate noise by rubbing special organs together on their legs or on their wings, a habit known as stridulation . This photograph, taken with the UCMP Environmental Scanning Electron Microscope , shows the "file" a ridged vein on the wings of a mole cricket in the genus Oecantha . Mole crickets rub this file over another specialized structure on the other wing, the "scraper," to produce sound. Special membranes on the legs or on the abdomen allow orthopterans to hear these sounds, which are used in courtship. Click on this picture to download the complete image!
