Abstract

In southeastern Michigan, Gryllus veletis chirps from mid-May until early August, barely or not at all overlapping with its sympatric sibling, G. pennsylvanicus, which chirps from early August until mid-November. When nights are warm, both species chirp chiefly at night; when nights are cold, they chirp solely by day.
