Panoploscelis
''Panoploscelis'' (commonly referred to as spiny lobster katydids or giant lobster crickets) is a genus of very large insects belonging to the Pseudophyllinae, true katydid tribe (biology), tribe Eucocconotini, which is a Family (biology), subfamily of the Tettigoniidae, katydids. Like the other members of the suborder Ensifera, ''Panoploscelis'' are part of the insect order (biology), order Orthoptera, which also contains cricket (insect), crickets, grasshoppers and locusts. Members of this genus are among the largest katydids of the Neotropical realm, Neotropics. These Terrestrial animal, terrestrial, predation, predatory insects are endemism, endemic to the remote and relatively inaccessible tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests, neotropical rainforests of Central America, Central and South America. Little is known about this genus, because data thus far have been collected from a very limited number of specimens. The first specimen, a female of the species ''Panoplo ...

Pseudophyllinae
The subfamily Pseudophyllinae contains numerous species in the family Tettigoniidae, the katydids or bush crickets. Sometimes called "true katydids", together with the crickets of suborder Ensifera, they form part of the insect order Orthoptera which also contains grasshoppers. Members of the group are noted for their remarkable camouflage. They closely resemble dried leaves, including veins, various blotches and even bite marks. Systematics The Pseudophyllinae may be subdivided into the following tribes (the first 17 of which are sometimes grouped into the super-tribes: Pleminiiti and Pseudophylliti) and genera. Orthoptera Species File
(retrieved 25 December 2017) Some notable are also listed ...
