Poekilocerus pictus (Painted grasshopper), it's a multi coloured species of grasshopper, found in Indian subcontinent, Africa, Indo-China and Malesia.

Brief Discription; The half grown immature form is greenish-yellow with fine black markings and little
spots. The mature grasshopper has yellowness and torquise stripes on its body, green tegmina with
yellow spots, and pale red hind winds.

It can change its outward appearance by melting.

More about this- Upon slight pinching of the top or abdomen, the half-grown immature form ejects
liquid in a very sharp and sudden jet, with a variety of two inches or more, from a dorsal opening between the
first and second abdominal segments. The discharge is repeated several times. The liquid is pale and
milky, slightly viscous and bad tasting, containing cardiac glycosides that the insects obtain from the
plant it satisfy.

In the adult the discharge occurs under the tegmina and collects as viscous bubbly heap along the perimeters
of the body.Known for a reason, the most food plant as Aak Grasshopper or locally in few tribal areas called
titighodo.

The pattern and colors on this insect found in india are truly one in all a sort . Voracious plant
eaters every a part of the insect is pattered and colored from the antenna to the underside. They

So, when grasshopper shows up he may well be reaffirming to you that you simply are taking the correct
steps to maneuver forward in your current situation. Or it might be that he's telling you to travel ahead
and move forward getting past what's hindering you. this is often why grasshopper is that the symbol of
good luck everywhere the globe. Grasshopper don’t usually bite people. But some type that gather
in large swarms mag bite when swarming. Other styles of grasshopper may bite people if they
feel threatened.
It looks as if, it's painted with the brilliant colours but not exactly, after I saw this for the very
first time in I just click these pictures and at the moment I researched on this, that how they feed,
how they live, where they found, and the way will they survive.
GRASSHOPPER, any reasonably a gaggle of jumping insects (suborder caelifera) that are found in a very
variety of habitats.Grasshopper occurs in greatest numbers in lowlands tropical forests,
semiarid regions, and grasslands. they vary in colour from green to olive or brown and will
have yellow or red markings.
The grasshopper generally sense through organs locate in various parts of its body , including
antennae and palps on the top, cerci on the abdomen, and receptors on the legs, Organs for
taste are located within the mouth, and people for smell are on the antennae. They hears by means
of a tympanal organ situated within the first segments of the abdomen, which is attached to the
thorax. Its sense vision compound eyes (or ocelli). Although most grasshopper are herbivorous,
only few species are important economically as crops pests.
I had a good experience with this research, in daily we all see many species especially in rainy
season, as i've got searched on this so, I found that this can be the rarer species on earth which
only found some specific places as i discussed above.
In this i've got learned that, if you see only 1 insects, it couldn't always that they don’t have
varieties, this can be an honest example of all species that we see in our universe, search on
these things are often your addiction if you're interested.
If you're interested they're going on to the current blogger you may find some more styles of blogs, which
you would like better to read with curiosity

I am feeling very delightful while I am sharing these pictures with my HIVE family
