The largest members of the family are the 5 cm long bull crickets (Brachytrupes), which excavate burrows a metre or more deep. Having long, whip-like antennae, they belong to the suborder Ensifera, which has been greatly reduced in the last 100 years and inlucde taxa such as the spider-crickets and allies, sword-tail crickets, wood or ground crickets and scaly crickets, that have been elevated to family level. The type genus is Gryllus and the first use of the family name “Gryllidae” was by Francis Walker.
