About Parabacillus hesperus Hebard, 1934
Parabacillus hesperus, commonly known as the western short-horn walkingstick, is a species of walkingstick that belongs to the family Heteronemiidae. This species is found in North America, specifically in dry, arid regions. Its diet is made up of a variety of scrub and grassland plant species. The western short-horn walkingstick has an adaptation called crypsis, which allows it to blend so perfectly into its natural habitat that potential predators often cannot detect it at all.
