The subfamily Catantopinae is a group of insects classified under family Acrididae. Genera such as Macrotona may sometimes called "spur-throated grasshoppers", but that name is also used for grasshoppers from other subfamilies, including the genus Melanoplus from the Melanoplinae.
The grasshopper subfamily Acridinae, sometimes called silent slant-faced grasshoppers, belong of the large family Acrididae in the Orthoptera: Caelifera.
Tetrigidae is an ancient family in the order Orthoptera, which also includes similar families such as crickets, grasshoppers, and their allies. Species within the Tetrigidae are variously called groundhoppers, pygmy grasshoppers, pygmy devils or "grouse locusts".
Gomphocerinae, sometimes called "slant-faced grasshoppers", are a subfamily of grasshoppers found on every continent but Antarctica and Australia.
Discotettix is a genus of pygmy grasshoppers found in Malesia, Brunei, Indonesia and the Philippines. They are commonly known as spiky pygmy devils. After revision, it is the type genus of the tribe Discotettigini and now placed in the subfamily Scelimeninae.
Scelimena is a genus of ground hoppers in the family Tetrigidae, with records from India, Indo-China, Malesia and Papua New Guinea.
Oxyinae is subfamily of grasshoppers in the family Acrididae. Species are distributed throughout Africa and Australasia.
Romaleinae is a subfamily of lubber grasshoppers in the family Romaleidae, found in North and South America. More than 60 genera and 260 described species are placed in the Romaleinae.
Batrachideinae is a subfamily of groundhoppers or pygmy grasshoppers. There are thought to be 20 genera in Batrachideinae, with genera found in the Americas, Africa, Asia and Australia.
Tetriginae is a large subfamily of groundhoppers or pygmy grasshoppers. Members of Tetriginae occur on every continent except Antarctica.
Scaria is a genus of groundhoppers or pygmy grasshoppers in the tribe Batrachideini from South America. There are about eight described species in Scaria.
Scelimeninae is a subfamily of ground hoppers belonging to the Tetrigidae family of Orthopterans.
Metrodorinae is a subfamily of groundhoppers or pygmy grasshoppers. There are at least 90 genera and more than 590 described species, found in South America, Africa and Asia.
The Phlaeobini are a tribe of grasshoppers in the subfamily Acridinae. The recorded distribution of genera includes: Africa, the Middle East and Asia.
Coptotettix is an Asian genus of ground-hoppers in the subfamily Tetriginae.
Bolivaritettix is an Asian genus of ground-hoppers in the subfamily Metrodorinae and not assigned to any tribe.
Epitettix' is a genus of ground-hoppers in the subfamily Cladonotinae and typical of the new (2023) tribe Epitettigini; records are from Madagascar and Asia.
The Ommatolampidinae are a subfamily of grasshoppers in the family Acrididae, found in central and South America, and based on the type genus Ommatolampis. Derived from the "Ommatolampides" used by Brunner von Wattenwyl in 1893, the first use of the name in its current form was by Rodríguez et al. in 2013; this taxon appears to be paraphyletic.
Falconius is a genus of Asian groundhoppers in the tribe Scelimenini, erected by Ignacio Bolívar in 1898. Species have been recorded from India, Indochina and Malesia.
