Tylopsis lilifolia, the lily bush-cricket , is a species of Orthopterans in the subfamily Phaneropterinae. It is found in Europe and Asia.
This species is present especially in southern Europe (not the British Isles or Scandinavia) [2] and it is widespread in the Mediterranean region. It can also be found in North Africa and in the Near East, in Iran and in the Caucasus. It mainly inhabits sunny meadows, shrubs and forest clearings. [3] [4] [5]
The adult males grow up to 13–22 millimetres (0.51–0.87 in) long, while females can reach 16–23 millimetres (0.63–0.91 in) of length. [6]
This species has two different forms of color. The basic coloration of the body varies from olive green or pale green to light brown with a brown-yellowish longitudinal band on the back. Head, legs and wings are green. The legs are long and thin, with small spines. The antennae are very long, they reach up to five times the body length. The ovipositor is about 4–5 millimetres (0.16–0.20 in) long [6] and curved upward. In the dry grasslands it is common a brown form of the body.[ citation needed ]
Adults can be encountered from August through October. [6]

Conocephalus fuscus, the long-winged conehead, is a member of the family Tettigoniidae, the bush-crickets and is distributed through much of Europe and temperate Asia. This bush-cricket is native to the British Isles where it may confused with the short-winged conehead. These two species are phenotypically similar; however, the distinguishing factor between the two is the fully developed set of wings the long-winged conehead possesses that allows for flight. In the short-winged coneheads the hind wings are shorter than the abdomen, causing the wings to be vestigial and the species is incapable of flight. For this reason it is hard to discriminate between the two species during the early stages of their life cycle before the wings have fully developed. The colouration of the conehead is typically a grass green with a distinctive brown stripe down its back, though there are some brown phenotypes.
