Re: 3 Cracking Little Critters For I.d Please

forester moth, field grasshopper and what looks almost like a cross between a Roesel's bush cricket and a dark bush cricket....Based on your location I'd plump for the dark bush cricket - though I'll just go away and look up bog bush cricket

hmm I'm fairly swayed by boh bush cricket - though I don't know much about its distribution and my book is at work....... the green underside and legs and white edge to the pronotum point to bog bush cricket did it have a gree top as well - apparently the top of the head and pronotum can be green or brown in this species....
