An Acrididae family member with enlarged hind femurs, four-valved ovipositor, green- or strawberry-colored bodies, heavy, short antennae, plant-eating, three-segmented lower legs, and 0.1- to 4.3-inch- (5- to 11-centimeter-) sized bodies is a description of a short-horned grasshopper. The short-horned grasshopper, with over 10,000 species worldwide, hears by ears in the abdomen, unlike long-horned grasshoppers whose hearing is in the knee joints. The migratory, plague species receives the common name locust.
