Chorotypidae
Chorotypidae is a family of tropical Asian grasshoppers (order Orthoptera), formerly included within the family Eumastacidae. These grasshoppers have a head that rises above the level of the thorax and short antennae. Some species have reduced wings, others have wings that widen towards the tips and still others have a flattened leaf-like shape. They lack abdominal tympani (hearing organs). Subfamilies and Genera The Orthoptera Species File lists the following: (31 March 2010) Chininae Chininae - China, Indo-China * '' China'' * '' |

There are currently two known genera and about nine described species, found in southern China and Southeast Asia. The subfamily was first formally erected in 1899.Burr M (1899) ''An. Soc. Espan. Hist. Nat.'' 28:94, 256.

Erianthus (insect)
''Erianthus'' is a genus of grasshoppers restricted to Southeast Asia. They occur in Japan, northeast India, Myanmar, Thailand, Vietnam, South China including Hong Kong, and extend east to Sumatra. In the past some neotropical species were also included in the genus. They have narrow ranges and species are identifiable only by their characteristics of male and female genitalia. The genus was erected in 1875 by Swedish entomologist Carl Stål in his ''Observations Orthopterologiques''. ''Erianthus'' is the family Chorotypidae and is the largest genus in the subfamily Erianthinae by number of species. The type species is ''Mastax guttata'' (now ''Erianthus guttatus''). Species , species in ''Erianthus'' include: *''Erianthus angulatus'' Ingrisch & Willemse, 1988 – Thailand *''Erianthus armatus'' Descamps, 1975 – Vietnam *''Erianthus bolivari'' Descamps, 1975 – Indochina *''Erianthus delattrei'' Descamps, 1975 – Cambodia *''Erianthus dohrni'' Bolívar, 1914 – Vietnam *'' ...

China (insect)
''China'' is a genus of grasshoppers in the family Chorotypidae. , it is monospecific, consisting of its sole species ''China mantispoides''. It is found in China, Thailand, and Myanmar. Malcolm Burr first circumscribed the genus in 1899; the species ''C. mantispoides'' was described in 1870 by Francis Walker. It is a pest of hickory trees. Distribution Although ''China'' has sometimes been described as being endemic to China, its range extends to other countries in Mainland Southeast Asia. The type locality of ''C. mantispoides'' was recorded as just "China". ''C. mantispoides'' is found in central and southern China. Its range includes the provinces of Anhui, Fujian, Guangdong, Henan, Hubei, Hunan, Jiangsu, Jiangxi, Sichuan, and Zhejiang. It is found in Dabie Mountains, Hubei Province, at elevations of in mixed evergreen and deciduous broad-leaved forests. This species has also been observed in the Bamianshan Nature Reserve, Hunan; this is within the Nanling Mountains and i ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Eumastacidae
Eumastacidae are a family of grasshoppers sometimes known as monkey- or matchstick grasshoppers. They usually have thin legs that are held folded at right angles to the body, sometimes close to the horizontal plane. Many species are wingless and the head is at an angle with the top of the head often jutting above the line of the thorax and abdomen. They have three segmented tarsi and have a short antenna with a knobby organ at the tip. They do not have a prosternal spine or tympanum. Most species are tropical and the diversity is greater in the Old World. They are considered primitive within the Orthoptera and feed on algae, ferns and gymnosperms, the more ancient plant groups. The families Chorotypidae and Morabidae were formerly included in this group as subfamilies but are now considered as families within the Eumastacoidea. With the exception of the central Asian Gomphomastacinae, all other subfamilies are restricted to South America. Subfamilies and Genera The Orthoptera Sp ...
