Across Africa, more than 500 different species of insects are typical table fare, and, for many people, grasshoppers top the menu. Known as “nsenene” in Luganda, a common language in Uganda, the grasshoppers are often sold in markets such as this one in Nyendo, Masaka, Uganda. Pictured at center, in a light brown shirt, is James Peter Egonyu, Ph.D., a research scientist at the International Centre of Insect Physiology and Ecology’s Insects for Food, Feed and Other Uses Programme. Egonyu and a team of researchers have designed an improved trap for catching the wild grasshoppers that reduces nontarget bycatch, energy consumption, and use of hazardous materials.
