Associated with Painted Desert red sandstone outcrops and escarpments and occasionally rocky outcrop areas. The crickets seem to live in cracks in the sandstone escarpment during the day then come down to the valley floor at night to forage.
Life cycle:
No egg diapause; in the laboratory, multiple generations per year are possible but it is unclear how this translates to the field.
Season:
Adults appear from mid-May to September and nymphs are present from June to August.
Name derivation:
Named for the Diné people of the Navajo nation who inhabit the area where G. navajo ranges.
