Melanoplinae
The Melanoplinae are a subfamily of grasshoppers in the family Acrididae. They are distributed across the Holarctic and Neotropical realms. They are one of the two largest subfamilies in the Acrididae. As of 2001 the Melanoplinae contained over 800 species in over 100 genera, with more species being described continuously. Tribes and Genera The genera of the Melanoplinae are classified in 6 tribes, that include: Conalcaeini (Nearctic), Dactylotini (Nearctic), Dichroplini (mostly Neotropical), Jivarini (Neotropical), Melanoplini and Podismini (synonym Prumnini). These genera belong to the subfamily Melanoplinae: * ''Aeoloplides'' Caudell, 1915 * ''Agnostokasia'' Gurney & Rentz, 1964 * ''Agroecotettix'' Bruner, 1908 * ''Aidemona'' Brunner, 1893 * '' Akamasacris'' Cigliano & Otte, 2003 * '' Anepipodisma'' Huang, 1984 * '' Apacris'' Hebard, 1931 * ''Appalachia'' Rehn & Rehn, 1936 * ''Aptenopedes'' Scudder, 1877 * '' Argemiacris'' Ronderos, 1978 * '' Asemoplus'' Scudder, 18 ...

Acrididae
The AcrididaeMacLeay WS (1821) ''Horae Entomologicae or Essays on the Annulose Animals'' 2 are the predominant family of grasshoppers, comprising some 10,000 of the 11,000 species of the entire suborder Caelifera. The Acrididae are best known because all locusts (swarming grasshoppers) are of the Acrididae. The subfamily Oedipodinae is sometimes classified as a distinct family Oedipodidae in the superfamily Acridoidea. Acrididae grasshoppers are characterized by relatively short and stout antennae, and tympana on the side of the first abdominal segment. Subfamilies The ''Orthoptera Species File'' (September 2021) lists the following subfamilies of Acrididae. The numbers of genera and species are approximate and may change over time. # Acridinae MacLeay, 1821 (140 genera, 470 species), Worldwide: temperate and tropical # Calliptaminae Jacobson, 1905 (12 genera, 90 species), Africa, Europe, Asia # Caryandinae Yin & Liu, 1987 (3 genera, 100 species), Africa, Asia ## ''C ...
