Cricket - An Introduction

Crickets are insects of a family characterized by the chirping courtship call of the male and by the needlelike or cylindrical ovipositor (organ at the end of the abdomen where eggs are deposited) of the female. Male wings have ridges that act like a “comb and file” instrument. The left forewing has a rib(modified vein) which bears a number of minute teeth. They chirp by rubbing their left forewing against the hind edge of the right forwing.
