  Buckell's grig

  Cyphoderris buckelli is a cold-adapted, hump-winged cricket (family Prophalangopsidae) found in high-elevation coniferous forests of western North America. Males produce acoustic calling songs and modify their chirp duty cycle in response to nearby conspecific males, though they do not defend fixed territories. The species exhibits low site fidelity and extensive male displacement between nights.
