Hapithinae is a subfamily of insects in the cricket family Gryllidae. [1] It is one of several groups referred to in American English as "bush crickets" (along with Eneopterinae and Trigonidiinae), although this term can be confused with the Tettigoniidae. [2]
The Orthoptera Species File [1] lists three tribes:

Gryllinae, or field crickets, are a subfamily of insects in the order Orthoptera and the family Gryllidae.
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".
Cycloptilum is a genus of common scaly crickets in the family Mogoplistidae. There are at least 50 described species in Cycloptilum.
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.
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.
The Eneopterinae are a subfamily of crickets, in the family Gryllidae, based on the type genus Eneoptera. It is one of several groups widely described as "true crickets". Of the more than 500 species that make up this subfamily, most occur in moist, tropical habitats. These insects are medium to large and brown or gray in color. They eat plant leaves, flowers, and fruits and can occasionally cause economic damage. Their eggs are deposited in pith, bark, or wood. Eneopterinae show a great diversity in stridulatory apparatus, signals emitted, and associated behaviour.
Anaxipha is a genus of brown sword-tail cricket from tropical areas in the Americas, Africa, Asia, Australia and western Pacific islands.
Nemobiinae is a subfamily of the newly constituted Trigonidiidae, one of the cricket families. The type genus is Nemobius, which includes the wood cricket, but members of this subfamily may also be known as ground crickets or "pygmy field crickets".
Hygronemobius is a genus of insect in family Gryllidae.
Hapithus agitator is a species of cricket in the genus Hapithus, in the subfamily Hapithinae. A common name for it is "restless bush cricket". It is found in North America.
Hapithus is a genus of flightless bush crickets in the family Gryllidae. There are more than 200 described species in Hapithus.
Cyrtoxipha is a genus of green trigs in the family Gryllidae. There are at least 30 described species in Cyrtoxipha.
Pentacentrinae is a subfamily of crickets in the family Gryllidae. Sometimes known as 'Silent Litter Crickets', they occur in tropical Asia, Africa and the Americas.
Tafalisca is a genus of silent bush crickets in the family Gryllidae. There are more than 20 described species in Tafalisca.
Podoscirtinae is a subfamily of crickets in the family Gryllidae.
Pteronemobius is a genus of cricket in the subfamily Nemobiinae, with a worldwide distribution.
The Phalangopsidae are a recently reconstituted family of crickets, based on the type genus PhalangopsisServille, 1831 from South America. Priority for family-group names based on this genus dates from Blanchard's "Phalangopsites".
Hapithini is a tribe of crickets in the subfamily Hapithinae. There are about 12 genera and more than 260 described species: found in Central and South America.
Gryllini is a tribe of crickets and typical of the family Gryllidae. Species are terrestrial, carnivorous or omnivorous and can be found in all continenents except Antarctica.
