The Mormon Cricket was so called because it plagued the crops of the early Mormon Settlers in the area of the Great Salt Lake.
That early disaster gave rise to a piece of folk-lore, in which the Settlers were saved from crop failure and famine by flocks of seagulls sweeping in from the Salt Lake to devour the swarms of insects.
Orson F. Whitney [an LDS Apostle and author of 'The History of Utah'] says that in the midst of the devastation of the crickets, "[W]hen it seemed that nothing could stay the devastation, great flocks of gulls appeared, filling the air with their white wings and plaintive cries, and settled down upon the half-ruined fields.
