Using a bat detector to ID grasshoppers and crickets

Malcolm Lee has produced an excellent paper on identifying grasshoppers and crickets by their song using a bat detector.

There is nothing extra I can add! Download his paper here. The note includes details on what type of bat detectors are available at what cost and song graphs of the individual species.

Malcolm has also produced recordings which you can listen to
