[edit] Discussion

I've noticed that my cave crickets tend to jump away from me, also they seem to come right out of the drain in the sink. Is this possible?whicky1978 ^talk 05:24, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

I am no expert on bugs, but I recently saw a documentary and read a couple of articles about cave crickets. I didn't have any handy references, but I did do enough surfing just to be sure my recollections were not faulty or controversial. Certainly I have no personal attachment to these claims, and I did not attempt to remove the "stub" status for lack of bibliography or sufficient detail. However, I do hope the expansion I just performed was a step in the right direction. Demonweed 03:41, 25 October 2005 (UTC)

Anyone else know these as Spider Crickets? NCSUPiMaster

I have heard of them also referenced as Spider Crickets (and that is what I originally searched on.) I also noticed that the majority of this article seems to have the same content as the following website from Iowa State University, http://www.ipm.iastate.edu/ipm/iiin/ccamelcr.html. I don't know who copied who, though. Jeremyh113

[edit] Cleanup

This Tree of Life article needs to be cleaned up to conform to a higher standard of quality. This may include adding a taxonomy box or adding correct categorization, as well as any other cleaning up.
See Wikipedia:How to edit a page and Category:Wikipedia help for help, or this article's talk page.

The article is very unclear about what animals it actually covers. Is it all members of Ceuthophilinae or just some (presumably those which are not sand treaders)? Is it a phylogenetic group or an ecological one? If the animals do not form a monophyletic group, then a taxobox may not be appropriate. --Stemonitis 23:13, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
