Crickets, Camel Crickets and Mole CricketsFinding a Pine Tree Cricket hints
Hi Bugman,
I thought some bug lovers would be interested in seeing how well a Pine Tree Cricket blends in with its habitat. It took me two visits to find this little tree cricket. Now that I see how they position themselves on a branch, I’m sure it will be much easier to find more. This is a 6 foot high ornamental shrub–the tree cricket was about 5 feet up and about 2 feet in. I wasn’t sure I would even be able to find a Pine Tree Cricket in Wisconsin—but I finally have. Love your site,

Hi Nancy,
Your hints will also apply to other Tree Crickets in the genus Oecanthus as well as the Pine Tree Cricket, Oecanthus pini. We located a website with additional images and information.
