Crickets are orthopteran insects which are related to bush crickets, and, more distantly, to grasshoppers. In older literature, such as Imms , [ 3 ] "crickets" were placed at the family level ( i.e. Gryllidae ), but contemporary authorities including Otte now place them in the superfamily Grylloidea . [ 1 ]
The Oecanthidae are a recently (2022 [1]) restored family of crickets based on the type genus Oecanthus Serville, 1831.They include "tree crickets", "anomalous crickets" and "bush crickets" (American usage) and can be found in warmer parts of most of the world (not the northern Palaearctic, Nearctic or Antarctica).
Orthoptera (from Ancient Greek ὀρθός (orthós) 'straight' and πτερά (pterá) 'wings') is an order of insects that comprises the grasshoppers, locusts, and crickets, including closely related insects, such as the bush crickets or katydids and wētā.
Gryllinae, or field crickets, are a subfamily of insects in the order Orthoptera and the family Gryllidae. They hatch in spring, and the young crickets (called nymphs) eat and grow rapidly. They shed their skin eight or more times before they become adults. Field crickets eat a broad range of food: seeds, plants, or insects (dead or alive).
The plates also may aid jumping on land, which Tridactylidae certainly can do impressively. The posterior tibiae also bear articulated spines near their tips, plus spurs longer than the hind tarsi, which may be entirely absent or else are at best vestigial, having only a single segment. The insect uses its hind tibial spurs for digging, which ...
Unusually for insects in the grasshopper family, wood crickets survive for two years. [4] Being flightless, these crickets are limited in their dispersal abilities; males have been found to disperse over 55 m (180 ft) from the woodland edge but females and nymphs did not move nearly so far. [5] Dispersal along the edge of woodland is more possible.

You can apply algebra to the equation and see that according to the model at 1000 degrees Celsius (around 1800 degrees Fahrenheit) crickets should be chirping at 6,970 chirps per minute (around 116 chirps per second), but no known cricket can live at that temperature to chirp.
