Velarifictorus micado
Velarifictorus micado, the Japanese burrowing cricket, is a cricket in the subfamily Gryllinae (family Gryllidae).[1][2] It is found in southern Asia, along with an introduced population in the United States.[2] It was first reported in the US in 1959, likely as overwintering eggs in the soil of imported plants, and has since spread all throughout the eastern half of the country.[3][4] V. micado is considered to be quite passive and non-destructive. Studies have shown that its range has spread northward and may be much more invasive than previously thought.[5]
