This female Forbes' tree cricket oviposited many eggs into dogwood stems.


This stem had approximately 20 eggs deposited into a 5-inch portion.



This photo shows the female sealing the hole with chewed stem and secretions.


This female Two-spotted tree cricket has the entire length of her ovipositor inserted into this apple tree branch.


Although somewhat dark and fuzzy, this video shows this female Pine tree cricket ovipositing with a head down position.  Note how she twists her body to accomplish drilling the hole.
