Insects in the Insect Record include more than 100 kinds of insects, such as dry mud bees, fireflies, crickets, grasshoppers, caterpillars, scarabs, dung beetles, ants, and Sisyphus insects.
Dry wasps: They like to nest in humid and warm places. They often nest in chimneys, where the temperature is suitable for the survival of dry wasps, but the young of dry wasps often suffocate, so dry wasps will nest in wide chimneys.
Firefly: carnivorous, it preys on mollusks such as snails and slugs, and annelids such as earthworms. After obtaining prey, it injects the secretion into the prey with its upper jaw for external digestion, and then inhales it into the body. Usually a snail will have many fireflies to share. Eggs, larvae, pupae and adults can emit light, and the light of adults can attract the opposite sex.
Crickets: crickets, invertebrates, Insecta, Orthoptera, Grylloidea. It is also called Jizhi, commonly known as cricket, nocturnal chirping insect (because it chirps at night), general insect, autumn insect, cockfight, Jizhi, Zhizhi, ground trumpet, kitchen chicken, Sun Wang, and soil sting.
Grasshopper: Grasshopper is a generic name for some large chirping insects of Insecta, Orthoptera and Tettigonidae. It is large, similar to grasshopper in shape, green in body and slender in antenna. The front wings of male insects rub against each other, and can make a clear and loud sound. They like to eat melons, fruits, beans, etc., and people use small bamboo cages to raise and watch them. As an entertainment insect, it has a long history in China. For example, in ancient Yizhou (now Yixian County, Hebei Province), there was a history of hundreds of years of caging and catching grasshoppers.
Caterpillar: larva of lepidopteran insects. It is cylindrical, divided into 13 sections, with 3 pairs of chest feet and several pairs of stomach feet. There are 6 eyes on both sides of the head, with short antennae and strong palate. The feces are poisonous. Some caterpillars have other common names, such as inchworm, silkworm and army worm (the larva of a star slime worm). Melicola larvae are also found in other insects, such as the order Megaptera and Hymenoptera.
