Habitat


T. gigas is often found in Prosopis or Acacia Trees.




Behavior


T. gigas is diurnal, and thus mostly active during the day.




Development


Unlike insects that undergo complete metamorphosis, hemimetabolous insects like T. gigas do not have a pupal stage. Instead, the nymph stage resembles the adult stage, but without wings or functional reproductive organs.
