Cricket feet

Post by Olympusman »

Leg details from the Common House Cricket (female). What is interesting to me, since I shoot so many insect legs, is that crickets appear to have pulvilli.
That said -- why do insects need pulvilli before the invention of glass?
I had one of those Marmorated Stink Bugs on the side window of my car at 45 mph before it finally gave up.
