Hemigryllus is a genus of crickets in subfamily Eneopterinae.
The Orthoptera Species File database lists the following species: [1]
The family Gryllidae contains the subfamilies and genera which entomologists now term true crickets. They belong to the Orthopteran subfamily Ensifera, having long, whip-like antennae and has been reduced in terms of the older literature, with taxa such as the spider-crickets and allies, sword-tail crickets, wood or ground crickets and scaly crickets elevated to family level. The type genus is Gryllus and the first use of the family name "Gryllidae" was by Walker.
The family Prophalangopsidae are insects belonging to the order Orthoptera. There is only one extant genus in North America, where they are known as grigs, four genera in Asia, and many extinct genera.
The family Stenopelmatidae is composed of large, mostly flightless insects resembling crickets. The majority of species are in the New World, but the genera Oryctopus and Sia are Old World groups, each of which is placed in its own subfamily.
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.
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".
Polionemobius is a genus of crickets in the subfamily Nemobiinae. Species can be found in Asia.
Conoblemmus is a genus of crickets in tribe Gryllini; species are recorded from central Asia.
Ganoblemmus is a genus of crickets in tribe Gryllini; species are recorded from Africa.
The superfamily Hagloidea are insects belonging to the order Orthoptera: Ensifera; they are now represented by the extant Prophalangopsidae, with many extinct genera and families.
Tettigoniidea is an infraorder of the order Orthoptera, with six extant families.
Podoscirtinae is a subfamily of crickets in the family Gryllidae.
Grigoriora is a genus of Asian bush crickets belonging to the tribe Meconematini: in the subfamily Meconematinae.
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".
The Phaloriinae is a subfamily of crickets of the family Phalangopsidae. Species are terrestrial and are distributed in: Africa, tropical Asia, Korea, Australia and the Pacific Islands.
Trellius is an Asian genus of crickets in the family Phalangopsidae, subfamily Phaloriinae, tribe Phaloriini.
Modicogryllini is a tribe of crickets of the family Gryllidae. Species are terrestrial, carnivorous or omnivorous and can be found in all continenents except Antarctica.
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.
Eumodicogryllus is a genus of crickets in the family Gryllidae and tribe Modicogryllini. Species in this genus are similar to - and were originally considered a subgenus of - Modicogryllus (Eumodicogryllus); they have been recorded from: Europe, northern Africa and temperate Asia.
Parendacustes is a genus of crickets in the family Phalangopsidae, tribe Phalangopsini, subtribe Parendacustina. Species have been recorded from Indo-China, Malesia and New Guinea.
