Genus Schizodactylus include crickets that exist today, grasshopper, and the animals named Katydid. "This name they received in accordance with the legs at their disposal that allow them to warpage and support their bodies in a sandy habitat to hunt their prey," said Sam Heads, Chairman of the researchers who discovered the fossil. When hunting, Heads said, the species is actually not using a particular strategy. This fat-bodied insects come out at night combing their habitat to find prey. "They can move quickly when needed ... and they are quite voracious," said Sam, who comes from Illinois University.

At least, he has differences with the crickets that exist today. With a length of about 6 cm from the head to the back of his body, he has a rather strange posture. Antennae longer than its body. Crickets also has wings and legs curled sharp like snowshoes. According to the Heads, is to support it can still be planted in sandy areas. However, this very aggressive cricket can not fly despite having wings. Wings, says Heads usually only be expanded when needed.
