Tetrix ceperoiとは 意味・読み方・使い方

Tetrix ceperoi, commonly named Cepero's groundhopper, is a member of the Tetrigidae family and is very similar to common grasshoppers. Grasshopper is defined as a "plant eating insect with long hind legs that are used for jumping and for producing a chirping sound". However, unlike the common grasshopper, the wings of Tetrix ceperoi extend beyond its pronotum (the upper surface of the first segment of the thorax). The front wings have evolved throughout history to be stumps, and the back wings are very well developed. Thanks to the front wings only, Tetrix ceperoi is capable of flying. Furthermore, Tetrix ceperoi sports wide shoulders while covering its narrow abdomen beneath the pronotum. Tetrix ceperoi are classified as Orthoptera, which describes crickets, grasshoppers, and locusts. Furthermore, these Orthoptera have incomplete metamorphosis, which also has an impact on sexual dimorphism later. Tetrix ceperoi reach an average length of about 10 millimetres (0.39 in). Tetrix ceperoi is a multi-coloured ground dweller with the ability to blend into its surroundings. The ability of Tetrix ceperoi to be different colours makes it able to evolve colour schemes better adapted to specific habitats. This cryptic nature of their outer layer provides protection from predators as it is able to blend in to its surroundings. Tetrix ceperoi is diurnal, which means it is solely active in the daytime. However, although it is diurnal, it continues to hibernate during a late nymphal instar or later on in life as adults.
