A tree cricket, Oecanthus sp. Photo by Drees. Adults are winged, but otherwise resemble nymphs.
Tree crickets are whitish to light green, with slender bodies and long antennae.
The snowy tree cricket, Oecanthus fultoni Walker, has black spots on the first two antennal segments. Treehoppers and cicadas also deposit eggs in twigs and branches, causing some injury when high numbers occur. However, damage is usually not sufficient to justify control. Eggs overwinter where laid and hatch in spring. One generation is produced per year.
