  Sandgroper - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sandgropers part the soil ahead of them with breaststroke-like motions of their highly modified and very powerful fore legs and they can run backwards or forward within their galleries on the comparatively tiny mid and hind legs.
The biology of sandgropers is very poorly studied but this is not surprising in view of the difficulty of finding and observing the insects.
Western sandgropers are reported as having damaged cereal crops by feeding on the bases of the stems.
