Restless Bush Crickets?
Dear Bugpeople,
I took the enclosed picture of these very cute crickets on a potted plant along my front walk in suburban Philadelphia. I believe they are restless bush crickets, though they seemed pretty placid at the time. The big one on the left seems to be a female, while the other two seem to be males. Do you concur? Thanks for maintaining a wonderful website,

Hi John,
Thank you for sending in your wonderful image of correctly identified Restless Bush Crickets, Hapithus agitator, a new species for our site. There are many nice images on BugGuide as well.
