Grylloidea
Grylloidea is the superfamily of insects, in the order Orthoptera, known as crickets. It includes the " true crickets", scaly crickets, wood crickets and other families, some only known from fossils. Grylloidea dates from the Triassic period and contains about 3,700 known living species in some 528 genera, as well as 43 extinct species and 27 extinct genera. Characteristics The features which distinguish crickets in the superfamily Grylloidea from other Ensiferans are long, thread-like antennae, three tarsal segments, slender tactile cerci at the tip of the abdomen and bulbous sensory bristles on the cerci. They are the only insects to share this combination of characteristics. The term cricket is popularly used for any cricket-like insect in the order Ensifera, being applied to the ant crickets, bush crickets ( Tettigoniidae), Jerusalem crickets (''Stenopelmatus''), mole crickets, camel crickets and cave crickets ( Rhaphidophoridae) and wētā (Anostostomatidae), and the ...

Gryllinae
Gryllinae, or field crickets, are a subfamily of insects in the order Orthoptera and the family Gryllidae. They hatch in spring, and the young crickets (called nymphs) eat and grow rapidly. They shed their skin ( molt) eight or more times before they become adults. Field crickets eat a broad range of food: seeds, plants, or insects (dead or alive). They are known to feed on grasshopper eggs, pupae of Lepidoptera (moths and butterflies) and Diptera (flies). Occasionally they may rob spiders of their prey. Field crickets also eat grass. In the British Isles "field cricket" refers specifically to '' Gryllus campestris'', but the common name may also be used for '' G. assimilis'', '' G. bimaculatus'', '' G. firmus'', '' G. pennsylvanicus'', '' G. rubens'', and '' G. texensis'', along with other members of various genera including '' Acheta'', '' Gryllodes'', '' Gryllus'', and '' Teleogryllus''. '' Acheta domesticus'', the House cricket, and ''Gryllus bimaculatus'' are raised i ...

Ensifera Genera
Ensifera is a suborder of insects that includes the various types of crickets and their allies including: true crickets, camel crickets, bush crickets or katydids, grigs, weta and Cooloola monsters. This and the suborder Caelifera (grasshoppers and their allies) make up the order Orthoptera. Ensifera is believed to be a more ancient group than Caelifera, with its origins in the Carboniferous period, the split having occurred at the end of the Permian period. Unlike the Caelifera, the Ensifera contain numerous members that are partially carnivorous, feeding on other insects, as well as plants. ''Ensifer'' is Latin for "sword bearer", and refers to the typically elongated and blade-like ovipositor of the females. Characteristics Characteristics shared by the two orthopteran suborders, Caelifera and Ensifera, are the mouthparts adapted for biting and chewing, the modified prothorax, the hind legs modified for jumping, the wing shape and venation, and the sound-producing strid ...
