Green Tree Cricket

Inhabits deciduous trees, shrubs, and tall weeds often in gardens or woodland edges.

Omnivorous; feeds on plant parts like flowers and fruit as well as small insects like aphids and scales.

Primarily nocturnal and known for the distinct chirping song of the males produced by rubbing their wings together. They undergo simple metamorphosis with eggs overwintering in plant stems.

Generally beneficial as they consume common garden pests like aphids, though they can cause minor damage to plant stems during egg-laying (oviposition).
