The Prophalangopsis obscura (P. obscura) is one of only eight remaining descendants of an ancient katydid family of over 90-known species that lived during the Jurassic period (199.6 million to 145.5 million years ago). However, there is only one known specimen of the grasshopper-like insect. It was discovered in India in the mid-1800s and later donated to London's Natural History Museum. Scientists have now digitally recreated the P. obscura's long-lost call in the hopes of locating the insects in the wild.

adroit_avimimus3년 이하Wow! That is so interesting! At first I thought the bug had a magical cloak on! Though it looks like any other bug, I can't believe it is only one of eight remaining descendants of an ancient katydid family of over 90-known species! 90 to 8! That's crazy! Did you know that grasshoppers have ears on their bellies? Or that they can jump between 10 and 20 times its body length without the aid of its wings? That's a long jump! They should compete in long and high jump in track and field haha! Anyways, bugs are really cool, even though to some people they may seem like creepy crawlies, they can actually be quite interesting! I hope the team can find the species they are looking for! It'll probably take a while, but it would be worth it to find it! Can't wait!
