Their highly adapted feet are used for burrowing beneath moist soil to feed on decaying ...

''Ammopelmatus kelsoensis'', commonly known as the Kelso Jerusalem cricket, is a species of insect in the family Stenopelmatidae. It is endemic to the Kelso Dunes in the United States. Despite intensive collecting, all specimens have only been found at Point Conception. Description Jerusalem crickets are large, striking orthopteran insects. The genus Ammopelmatus differs from other genera of stenopelmatine crickets in the following characters: *Having vestigial or absent tibial spines on the apical dorsal margins of the caudal tibiae *Median or presubapical spur on the ventral surface of the foretibiae absent Diagnostic Characteristics Leg characters, such as the form of spines and spurs, are important for differentiating species in this genus. ''Ammopelmatus kelsoensis'' has short, spatulate apical tibial spurs and calcars. The fore tibia has only two small ventral spines, and the hind tibia has only one ventral one.
