駱駝蟋蟀 灶馬是穴螽科（學名：Rhaphidophoridae）动物的俗名，又稱灶馬蟋蟀，是一種屬於直翅目的昆蟲，有說法表示成語「蛛絲馬跡」之中的馬即指灶馬。[1] 構造 體長約18.5至21.5公厘，雌性若算入腹部後端的產卵管則為12.0至23.0公厘；與其他灶馬科昆蟲一樣，即使是成蟲也沒有翅膀。最大的特徵就是擁有極長的觸角，甚至可達到體長的3倍以上；由於牠屬於不完全變態昆蟲，因此幼蟲外表除了在第1至3節身體下有著大量剛毛外與成蟲相同。 參考 灶的讀音：ㄗㄠˋ ^ 【奇趣史話】「蛛絲馬跡」的馬係咩？《蘋果日報》2013年4月16日 取自“https://zh.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=灶馬&oldid=48629310” 分类： 剑尾亚目 洞穴生物 隐藏分类： 本地相关图片与维基数据相同 含有拉丁語的條目

The well-known field crickets are from a different superfamily (Grylloidea) and only look vaguely similar, while members of the family Tettigoniidae may look superficially similar in body form.
