ツチイナゴ

特徴のある模様を持つツチイナゴ

こんぶくろ池自然博物公園のカナムグラが茂っている草むらにバッタがいた (Sep. 21, 2023)。イナゴより大きく、トノサマバッタよりやや小さいようだ。複眼と胸部の特徴のある模様からツチイナゴのようだ。

There was a grasshopper in the grassy area of Konbukuro Pond Nature Museum Park, where the Japanese hops were growing (Sep. 21, 2023). It seems to be larger than a locust and slightly smaller than a Migratory locust. It looks like the Patanga japonica because of the distinctive patterns on its chest and around its compound eyes.
