1. (Zool.) Any jumping, orthopterous insect, of the families
Acridid[ae] and Locustid[ae], having large hind legs
adapted for leaping, and chewing mouth parts. The species
and genera are very numerous and some are very destructive
to crops. The former family includes the Western
grasshopper or locust (Caloptenus spretus), noted for
the great extent of its ravages in the region beyond the
Mississippi. In the Eastern United States the red-legged
(Caloptenus femurrubrum and C. atlanis) are closely
related species, but their ravages are less important.
They are closely related to the migratory locusts of the
Old World. See Locust.
[1913 Webster +PJC]
Note: The meadow or green grasshoppers belong to the
Locustid[ae]. They have long antenn[ae], large
ovipositors, and stridulating organs at the base of the
wings in the male. The European great green grasshopper
(Locusta viridissima) belongs to this family. The
common American green species mostly belong to
Xiphidium, Orchelimum, and Conocephalus.
