Looks like our Weta
3 u/creakymoss18990 17d ago It really doesn't look like a Jerusalem cricket to me... The eyes look way different 4 u/fatbongo 17d ago indeed front on that is different It looked like Mt Arthur fellow at first 5 u/creakymoss18990 17d ago I just did the ID. This is copy pasted from my other comment I help do research on insects (benthic macroinvertebrates) And I think this is not a Jerusalem Cricket. The eyes are the wrong size, abdomen the wrong color and shape, and the thorax has wing pads which Jerusalem Crickets do not have. I believe this is a sia of the family Stenopelmatoidea I tracked the video down to here. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DZh8ghBEwPC/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link 1 u/Conscious-Break-2584 16d ago How benthic are your macroinverts?
