Orthoptera, Russia (1 Viewer)

[Andy Adcock]

I was looking, longingly at some old shots from my patch in Russia and found these images of immature Orthopterans, can anyone have a punt at their ID?

The commonest species on site is Wartbiter Cricket.

Perhaps Tettigonia cantans - there is a nymph shown on https://ftp.funet.fi/index/Tree_of_...a/tettigoniidae/tettigonia/index.html#cantans

I was thinking they looked rather like a Tettigonia, but not knowing Russian Orthoptera I decided it was better to not answer.

I used the following cribsheet ! http://orthoptera.speciesfile.org/Common/editTaxon/Distribution/SearchForFauna.aspx?GeoID=14RUW---
Although not necessarily up to date it can give a good starting point

Habitat description fits too, flowers were on a bank amid wet heath and swamp forest.
