Cristate Grasshopper

Conozoa texana Bruner

Conozoa texana occurs most commonly in desert areas of southwest Wyoming and the Big Horn Basin. It prefers area with barren soil between sagebrush or other shrubs. Eggs are assumed to overwinter in the soil, with adults present in July, August, and September. It is probably a mixed feeder with little economic importance in Wyoming.
