Iranotmethis is a genus of grasshoppers in the subfamily Thrinchinae, with species found in Iran. [1] [2]
The following species are recognised in the genus Iranotmethis: [1]
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:
Tenodera is a genus of mantis in the family Mantidae which contains several species of praying mantises. The species in this genus can be found primarily in Africa, Asia and Australia, but also North America.
Ameles is a wide-ranging genus of praying mantises represented in Africa, Asia, and Europe.
Gryllus is a genus of field cricket. Members of the genus are typically 15–31 mm long and darkly coloured. The type species is Gryllus campestris L.: the European field cricket.
Austroicetes is a genus of grasshoppers in the subfamily Oedipodinae and family Acrididae. Members of the genus typically feed on grass and herbs.
Toxoderidae is a family of praying mantises.
Rivetina is a genus of praying mantises in the family Rivetinidae.
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.
Gomphocerinae, sometimes called "slant-faced grasshoppers", are a subfamily of grasshoppers found on every continent but Antarctica and Australia.
Oedipoda is the type genus of grasshoppers, in the subfamily Oedipodinae, mostly from the Palaearctic realm. The type species is the European "blue-winged grasshopper", Oedipoda caerulescens.
Acrotylus is a genus of grasshopper in the family Acrididae and the type genus of the tribe Acrotylini.
Stenonemobius is a genus of cricket in the subfamily Nemobiinae; species can be found in North Africa, South-East Europe and Asia.
Pamphagidae is a family of grasshoppers belonging to the superfamily Acridoidea. The species in this family can be found in Africa, Europe and Asia.
Clonia is an African genus of bush crickets in the subfamily Saginae.
Oedaleus is a genus of grasshoppers in the family Acrididae.
Gastrimargus is a genus of grasshoppers in the subfamily Oedipodinae. The recorded distribution of species in this genus includes Africa, Asia, and Oceania.
Sphingonotus is a genus of grasshoppers in the family Acrididae, subfamily Oedipodinae, found in Europe Africa, Asia and Australia.
The Gonypetidae are a new (2019) family of praying mantids, based on the type genus Gonypeta. The name was created by Westwood and it has been revived as part of a major revision of mantid taxonomy; the subfamily Iridopteryginae having been moved here from the obsolete family Iridopterygidae. The Gonypetinae include Asian genera transferred from the obsolete taxa Amelinae and Liturgusidae.
Thrinchinae is a subfamily of grasshoppers, with genus found in Africa, Europe and Asia.
