THE CRICKET. 



Do you find the same regions as in the grasshopper? Are 

 there the same number of segments in the abdomen? and in 

 the thorax? Are the wings and the feet the same in number in 

 the two forms? In the place of the cerci what do you find? 

 Could you call these jointed appendages? How many parts 

 do you find in the ovipositor of the female? What changes in 

 the grasshopper ovipositor would be necessary to make it like 

 that of the cricket? Can you split any of the parts of the ovi- 

 positor of the cricket? Can you find the ear? 



In the head are there the same eyes, antennae, and mouth- 

 parts? Do the mandibles work in the same way? Look on the 

 second long joint (tibia) of the foreleg for the ear. Draw all 

 the parts mentioned as for the grasshopper.
