- W2228532918 abstract "This paper concems the taxonomy of sixty species of Gryllinae and Brachytrupinae belonging to twenty-three genera. Thirty-three species and twelve genera are new. Thirteen incorrectly assigned species are transferred to new or existing genera. A list of all taxa and tranfers is given below. With this paper the preliminary work on African field cricket genera is concluded. [Africa, crickets, Gryllidae, new combinations, new taxa, Orthoptera, songs, systematics] I have chosen to publish the descriptive work on African crickets in parts. The fauna is so immense, that it will take many years to produce a comprehensive treatment. African collections of crickets have grown rapidly over past few years, and even as this paper was being prepared, much more material has accumulated from recent field work in west Africa. Publishing the work piecemeal allows others to follow the progress of the work and to contribute to the effort much earlier than would be the case if one person held all the relevant material and information in one place. Much material for which we have no song information has accumulated in various museums, including our own, but, unfortunately, not too much can be done about it until a taxonomy based on songs progresses much further. Eventually we should know enough about the limits of variation and distribution to be able to identify the museum specimens which greater confidence. Several new genera of forest inhabiting Brachytrupinae (and tentatively assigned to Gymnogryllini) were found in the course of these studies. Some of the species concerned had already been described. In my revisions of Scapsipedus and other genera, I encountered the new genus Mayumbella from central Africa; the genus Uluguria, from the Uluguru Mountains of Tanzania, was found among acollection of specimens in the British Museum; the genus Taciturna was discovered in South Africa's eastern evergreen forests; andAbmisha was found in the coastal forests of Kenya and Tanzania. In a previous papers in this series (Otte 1983; Otte, Toms, and Cade in press) we revised what were thought to be two odd members of the Brachytrupinae (Afrogryllopsis Randell and Neogryllopsis Otte). But in the present paper I argue that these genera belong with Turanogryllus in a separate tribethe Turanogryllini. A new genus, Damaracheta, belonging to Gryllinae, was first seen in the Academy of Natural Sciences collection. It was later determined to be another specimen of Kany'sAcheta schultzei (later transferred to Modicogryllus by Chopard 1961). Among some specimens sent to me from the South African Museum I found a second species, capensis, and, finally, in a recent trip to Malawi I discovered three additional species, mlozi, kasungu, and zomba.. One of the two Gryllus species was found while examining some crickets in the British Museum; the other was tape recorded and collected on the Viphya Plateau in central Malawi. I have also examined the type of Gryllus subpubescence Chopard. Some new species of Velarifictorus and one new species of Modicogryllus were collected in Malawi in April 1986 by myself, George Glenn, and Jane Ruffin. Two additional Velarifictorus from Botswana were sent to me from the University of Pretoria. Songs were recorded for all of the" @default.
