Leaf Grasshopper On The Finger Stock Image

Grasshoppers are herbivorous insects from the suborder Caelifera in the order Orthoptera. This insect has antennae that are almost always shorter than its body and also has a short ovipositor. The sound produced by some species of grasshoppers is usually produced by rubbing the hind femurs against the forewings or abdomen & x28;called stridulation& x29;, or by flapping their wings while flying. The hind femur is generally long and strong which is suitable for jumping.
