An insect of the orthopterous family Gryllidae (7)

I believe the answer is:

cricket

(Other definitions for cricket that I've seen before include "Insect - sport" , "Jumping insect" , "Insect with long leg" , "English game or chirping insect" , "a jumper" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
