This all dark brown female is very unusual
The species cannot be determined. Hopeful that more will be found - including a male.

Please do not frass this photo.

Exactly where?
Where was this cricket found exactly? I am in San Diego and could look for additional specimens.

It would still be great...
if you kept your eyes open for any very dark tree crickets like this one. There was also a photo of a dark female further north.
