the First and most Obvious difference between the 3 is in.....the Spelling! AAAAAHAHAHA!...., cough,cough...Ahem! sorry, lack of sleep. i stand corrected, it IS in fact a grasshopper/ belalang kunyit, tks for correcting me. personally, this is how i tell the diff: d cricket is usually brown, has a longer antennae and has d ability to make a shrill sound by friction of it's forewings. d grasshopper is what u see in this photo and d locust usually migrates in immense nos. causing a lot of damage to crops. any other feedback on this matter is most welcome so we can all learn more abt this beautiful but "pain in the antennae" insect!
