Extract

The two-striped grasshopper, Melanoplus bivittatus (Say), generally confines its egg laying to ditches, drift soil and crop margins, but during the autumn grasshopper egg survey in southern Saskatchewan in 1942, this species was observed ovipositing in exposed piles of wheat left in the grain fields at harvest time.
