(% larger than natural size.) appearance, although it has no wings and the proportions of the different parts of its body are somewhat different from those of its parents. The young grasshopper has three pairs of legs, has a head with antennae, compound eyes and biting mouth- parts like those of its parent, walks and hops about, feeding on green plants, and altogether looking and acting much as fully developed grasshoppers do, except that it has no wings and hence cannot fly. As it grows, however, wings begin to appear as tiny bud-like expansions on the back of the two.
