Eneoptera surinamensis (De Geer, 1773) | |
Eneoptera surinamensis is a species of cricket from the genus Eneoptera . [1] [2] [3] The species was originally described by Charles De Geer in 1773 [4]
Eneoptera surinamensis is a tropical forest cricket, which lives in open areas of rain forest [3] Like its fellow members of the subfamily Eneopterinae, E. surinamensis eat leaves, flowers and fruits of living plants. [2] They deposit their eggs in pith, bark, or soft wood of plant stems.
Because of the species feeding on leaves, flowers and fruits of living plants, they occasionally damage plants of value to humans. [2]

The Eneopterinae are a subfamily of crickets, in the family Gryllidae, based on the type genus Eneoptera. It is one of several groups widely described as "true crickets". Of the more than 500 species that make up this subfamily, most occur in moist, tropical habitats. These insects are medium to large and brown or gray in color. They eat plant leaves, flowers, and fruits and can occasionally cause economic damage. Their eggs are deposited in pith, bark, or wood. Eneopterinae show a great diversity in stridulatory apparatus, signals emitted, and associated behaviour.
