Grasshoppers of Wyoming and the West

Entomology

Trimerotropis fratercula McNeill

Trimerotropis fratercula has been found in eastern Wyoming as far north as Guernsey. It prefers open pine savannahs and mountain foothills. Our adult specimens were collected July 31, south of Pine Bluffs, but adults are probably present through August. This uncommon grasshopper is not considered an economic pest in Wyoming.
