4 Violet Grasshoppers from French Guiana (TITANACRIS), under Rectangular Glass
IN277-2
These four vividly coloured grasshoppers belong to the TITANACRIS genus, a group of large arboreal grasshoppers native to South America — these specimens specifically come from French Guiana. All are males, slightly smaller than females, but no less impressive with their bold colouring and upright stance.
Titanacris species are known for their striking iridescent hues, ranging from deep violet to metallic green, offering surprisingly effective camouflage among the dense tropical foliage. Mostly active at dusk, they are part of the vibrant twilight life of the rainforest canopy.
Presented under a rectangular glass dome, the four specimens are arranged in a refined composition — somewhere between scientific display and graphic installation.
