Gryllus Barretti
''Gryllus'' is a genus of field cricket (Orthoptera, Gryllidae, Gryllinae). Members of the genus are typically 15–31 mm long and darkly coloured. The type species is ''Gryllus campestris'' L.: the European field cricket. Until the mid-1950s, native field crickets in eastern North America were all assigned to a single species, ''Acheta assimilis'' Fabricius. Although regional variation in calling song and life history were noted,Rehn, J.A.G., and Hebard, M. (1915). The genus ''Gryllus'' (Orthoptera) as found in America. ''Proc. Acad. Nat. Sci.

Gryllus Campestris
''Gryllus campestris'', the European field cricket or simply the field cricket in the British Isles, is the type species of crickets in its genus and tribe Gryllini. These flightless dark colored insects are comparatively large; the males range from 19 to 23 mm and the females from 17 to 22 mm. Habitat ''Gryllus campestris'' used to be common over most of Western Europe. It prefers dry, sunny locations with short vegetation, like dry grasslands. At the northern edge of its range, it is restricted to heathlands and oligotrophic grasslands. The species is flightless and unable to migrate long distances, and it therefore does not commonly recover on its own from local extinction. Reproduction The reproductive season of the univoltine species lasts from May to July. The males make a burrow with a platform at the entrance from which they attract females with their courtship stridulation. They chirp during daytime as well as the first part of the night, only when the te ...

Gryllus Bryanti
''Gryllus bryanti'' is a species of cricket in the subfamily Gryllinae. ''G. bryanti'' lives on islands in the Caribbean Sea, including Eleuthera Island and Andros Island in the Bahamas.Otte, D., and Pérez-Gelabert, D.E. 2009. Caribbean Crickets. Orthopterists’ Society, 792 pages. , OCLC: 423481281 Morphology ''Gryllus bryanti'' is among the larger species of field crickets. Body colour is dark brown with reddish brown around the head, thorax and legs (see images of male and female on this page). Habitat Typical of many field crickets, ''G. bryanti'' can be found living in cracks or burrows in the ground in disturbed areas (e.g. near roads) and around human habitations. Song production Like most gryllids, males produce song by tegminal (forewing) stridulation.Loher, W. and Dambach, M. 1989. Reproductive behavior. ICricket Behavior and Neurobiology(ed. Huber, F., Moore, T. E., and Loher, W.), pp. 43-82. Ithaca, NY: Cornell University Press., Male ''G. bryanti'' calling ...

Gryllus Ater
''Miogryllus convolutus'' is a species of cricket from South America. Description ''M. convolutus'' exists in a number of forms. Most strikingly, there are micropterous (small-winged) and macropterous (large-winged) forms, but there is also variation in colouration. Distribution ''M. convolutus'' has one of the widest geographical distributions of any member of the family Gryllidae in the Americas. It is found in both South and North America, having been recorded from Mexico, Belize, Panama, Costa Rica, Trinidad and Tobago, Guyana, Suriname, French Guiana, Brazil, Ecuador, Peru, Paraguay and Argentina. Taxonomic history ''M. convolutus'' was first described (under the name ''Gryllus convolutus'') in Carl Linnaeus Carl Linnaeus (; 23 May 1707 – 10 January 1778), also known after his ennoblement in 1761 as Carl von Linné Blunt (2004), p. 171. (), was a Swedish botanist, zoologist, taxonomist, and physician who formalised binomial nomenclature, the ...' 1763 work '' C ...
