 裏道でヒメクダマキモドキを見つけました。本州では海に近い温暖な地域の林縁などでよく見られる種で、最近では都市部の公園でも見ることが多いようです。特にアカメガシワを好んで食べるようです。


I found a "Hime-Kudamaki-Modoki (ヒメクダマキモドキ)" cricket on the back road. In the main island of Japan, they are often seen on the edge of forests in warm regions near the sea. It's said that they are seen even in parks in the city these days. They like to eat leaves of "Akame-Gashiwa (アカメガシワ)" trees.
