Grasshoppers of Wyoming and the West
Entomology
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.
