Grasshoppers, which belong to the order Orthoptera,
appear with the same structure in the fossil record
for millions of years. Grasshoppers mostly inhabit
tropical regions, but can be seen in different regions
around the globe.
All fossil grasshoppers show that the genus haven't
changed for millions of years—in other words,
grasshoppers didn't evolve. One of the proofs of this
is the 125-milion-year-old fossil grasshopper
pictured.
