Gryllus integer, commonly known as the western trilling cricket, is one of many species of field cricket (subfamily Gryllinae) in the genus Gryllus. It is called the "triller" field cricket because its song is nearly continuous rather than broken into discrete chirps.[1] G. integer can be found in parts of the Western United States, having been recorded from Oregon, California, Arizona and New Mexico.[2]
