• They possess both a solitary phase and a swarming phase.
• In the solitary phase, these grasshoppers are innocuous, their numbers are low and they do not pose a major economic threat to agriculture.
• However, under suitable conditions of drought followed by rapid vegetation growth, serotonin in their brains triggers a dramatic set of changes.
• They start to breed abundantly, becoming gregarious and nomadic (loosely described as migratory) when their populations become dense enough. (source)
