Ceracris kiangsu[1] is a species of grasshoppers in the subfamily Oedipodinae, sometimes called the yellow-spined bamboo locust.[2] It occurs in Indo-China and southern China, where it may become a locally significant agricultural pest. No subspecies are listed in the Catalogue of Life.[3]
Mud-puddling behaviour has been noted: these insects are attracted to the sodium and ammonium ions in human urine.[4] Overwintering as eggs occurs for up to nine months prior to the grasshoppers hatching.[5]
