Bela foto, Eduardo. No Brasil, estes gafanhotos são chamados de "brasileirinhos", por causa de sua cor quando adultos / Nice photo, Eduardo. In Brazil these grasshoppers are called "little brazilians", because their color when adults are the same as Brazil's national colors.

They look more like grasshopper nymphs.

Crickets or grasshoppers? Still, at least a 'zillion' legs.
