Spotted Bird Grasshopper.

Schistocerca, commonly called bird grasshoppers, is a genus of grasshoppers, many of which swarm as locusts, certain species of short-horned grasshoppers in the family Acrididae. They are usually solitary, but under certain circumstances become more abundant and change their behaviour and habits, becoming gregarious. There is no taxonomic distinction between locust and grasshopper species; the basis for the definition is whether a species forms swarms under intermittently suitable conditions.
