Forest litter crickets prefer higher substrate moisture for oviposition: Evidence from field and lab experiments

For insects, choosing a favorable oviposition site is a type of parental care, as far as it increases the fitness of its offspring. Niche theory predicts that crickets should show a bell-shaped oviposition response to substrate moisture. However, lab experiments with mole crickets showed a linear ov...
