Green Grasshoppers Are Standing On Leaves Stock Photo

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 sounds made by some species of grasshoppers are usually produced by rubbing their hind femurs against their forewings or abdomen (called stridulation), or by flapping their wings while flying. The hind femur is generally long and strong which is suitable for jumping.
