Locust \Lo"cust\, n. [L. locusta locust, grasshopper. Cf.
{Lobster}.]
1. (Zool.) Any one of numerous species of long-winged,
migratory, orthopterous insects, of the family
{Acridid[ae]}, allied to the grasshoppers; esp., ({Edipoda
migratoria}, syn. {Pachytylus migratoria}, and {Acridium
perigrinum}, of Southern Europe, Asia, and Africa. In the
United States the related species with similar habits are
usually called {grasshoppers}. See {Grasshopper}.
[1913 Webster]

Note: These insects are at times so numerous in Africa and
the south of Asia as to devour every green thing; and
when they migrate, they fly in an immense cloud. In the
United States the harvest flies are improperly called
locusts. See {Cicada}.
[1913 Webster]

India. See {Pastor}.
