The Orthoptera Species File [2] and Catalogue of Life [3] list:
Anostostomatidae is a family of insects in the order Orthoptera, widely distributed in the southern hemisphere. It is named Mimnermidae or Henicidae in some taxonomies, and common names include king crickets in South Africa and wētā in New Zealand. Prominent members include the Parktown prawn of South Africa, and the giant wētā of New Zealand. The distribution of this family reflects a common ancestry before the fragmenting of Gondwana.
The Acrididae are the predominant family of grasshoppers, comprising some 10,000 of the 11,000 species of the entire suborder Caelifera. The Acrididae are best known because all locusts are of the Acrididae. The subfamily Oedipodinae is sometimes classified as a distinct family Oedipodidae in the superfamily Acridoidea. Acrididae grasshoppers are characterized by relatively short and stout antennae, and tympana on the side of the first abdominal segment.
Bandwings, or band-winged grasshoppers are the subfamily Oedipodinae of grasshoppers classified under the family Acrididae. They have a worldwide distribution and were originally elevated to full family status as the Oedipodidae. Many species primarily inhabit xeric weedy fields, and some are considered to be important locusts:
The Tettigoniinae are a subfamily of bush crickets or katydids, which contains hundreds of species in about twelve tribes.
Trigonidiinae is a subfamily of insects in the order Orthoptera, suborder Ensifera, based on the type genus Trigonidium. They are often referred to as sword-tail crickets, winged bush crickets or trigs.
The subfamily Pseudophyllinae contains numerous species in the family Tettigoniidae, the katydids or bush crickets. Sometimes called "true katydids", together with the crickets of suborder Ensifera, they form part of the insect order Orthoptera which also contains grasshoppers.
The Phaneropterinae, the sickle-bearing bush crickets or leaf katydids, are a subfamily of insects within the family Tettigoniidae. Nearly 2,060 species in 85 genera throughout the world are known. They are also known as false katydids or round-headed katydids.
Phalangopsinae, occasionally known as spider crickets, are a subfamily of crickets in the family Phalangopsidae. Members of Phalangopsinae are found worldwide in tropical and subtropical regions. Most species in the subfamily are nocturnal and can be found in rocky areas, near fallen wood, and the understory of forests. Some species are gregarious, gathering in large numbers.
Gryllacridinae is an Orthopteran subfamily in the family Gryllacrididae.
Mecopodinae, the long-legged katydids, are a subfamily of bush crickets found in western South America, sub-Saharan Africa, and Asia. In Asia, the distribution includes India, Indochina, Japan, the Philippines, and Malesia to Papua New Guinea and Australasia, including many Pacific islands.
Conocephalinae, meaning "conical head", is an Orthopteran subfamily in the family Tettigoniidae.
Agraeciini is a large tribe of bush crickets or katydids in the conehead subfamily, Conocephalinae.
The Listroscelidinae are a subfamily of the Tettigoniidae found in the Americas, Madagascar, and Australia.
Turpilia is a genus of phaneropterine katydids in the family Tettigoniidae. There are about nine described species in Turpilia.
Podoscirtinae is a subfamily of crickets in the family Gryllidae.
Letana is a genus of bush cricket: characteristic of the tribe Letanini and placed in the subfamily Phaneropterinae. Species can be found in Asia: mostly India, China and Indo-China.
Phlaeoba is a genus of grasshoppers in the family Acrididae and subfamily Acridinae. The recorded distribution of species includes: India, China, Indo-China and Malesia.
Phyllomimus is an Asian genus of bush-crickets in the tribe Phyllomimini of the subfamily Pseudophyllinae.
Elimaea is a large genus within Tettigoniidae, the bush cricket or katydid family. Species in this genus are found in India, southern China, Indo-China and Malesia.
Ducetia is the type genus of the Ducetiini: a tribe of Asian bush crickets.
