Want this question answered?
They can chirp! Male crickets are the only ones that can chirp. Its to call a female for mating season.
yes
Only males sing and only females have an ovipositor.
Answer: The male has the same hourglass red mark on the abdomen, but is much smaller than the female. On the female, the abdomen is 10-20 times the size of the thorax. so the female has a bigger butt than the male lol!!!
It depends on what species you desire, and what you consider huge. In my opinion the male Hobo Spider has a pretty large abdomen. However when comparing most male spider's abdomen to the female abdomen, the answer might as well be no.
By its abdomen. Female: 6 segments. Male: 8 segments.
I have both crickets (male and female) and A praying mantis (crickets are my mantises food) I believe you are thinking of praying mantises not crickets. As far as I know female crickets do not eat male crickets! I just watched them mate and nothing happened. Crickets are omnivores and scavengers that feed on organic materials. Crickets have been known to eat their own dead when there is no other source of food available, and even exhibit predatorial behavior on other weakened or dead crickets. Sexual cannibalism is common among mantises in captivity, and under some circumstances may also be observed in the field. The female starts feeding by biting off the male's head (as with any prey), and if mating had begun, the male's movements may become even more vigorous in its delivery of sperm. Early researchers thought that because copulatory movement is controlled by ganglion in the abdomen, not the head, removal of the male's head was a reproductive strategy by females to enhance fertilisation while obtaining sustenance. Later, this behaviour appeared to be an artifact of intrusive laboratory observation. Whether the behaviour in the field is natural, or also the result of distractions caused by the human observer, remains controversial. Mantises are highly visual organisms, and notice any disturbance occurring in the laboratory or field such as bright lights or movements by animals or humans.If the female cricket does eat the male it would most likely be for the same reason as the mantis.
Well yeah. Male crickets chirp by rubbing their wings together; as for females I'm not quite sure, but they CAN chirp. I have had many many crickets; they all chirped. Im thinking I didn't ALWAYS get males.... ?
Male and female locusts can be distinguished by looking at the ends of their abdomen. Males have a boat-shaped tip while females have two serrated valves that can be either together or apart. These help her in digging the hole where her egg pods will be deposited
Male, Female and both Male and Female.
It is fairly easy to tell a female grasshopper from a male. The females are smaller than the males. Also, females have protrusions from the end of their abdomen, whereas the males do not.
the male slowworm is darker then the female. the female is brighter underneth then the male sloworm.
