This chapter introduces grasshoppers, tendrils, skull husks of two beetles, and puffballs.

Since ant-loving crickets are common hosts of ant's nests, I didn't think it would be farfetched to use other related insects, like grasshoppers and mole crickets, as domesticated insects similar to other myrmecophiles like aphids and caterpillars.

A tendril is a thread-like stem of a climbing plant used for attachment. Here's a photo. And another of a really curly tendril.photo
