The results of the study of many specimens preserved in different European museums are reported. The tribe Terpnistrini Brunner von Wattenwyl, 1878 is resurrected. The distribution of the following species is enhanced: Pardalotaasymmetrica Karsch, 1896, Diogenadenticulata Chopard, 1954, Diogenafausta (Burmeister, 1838), Plangiopsisadeps Karsch, 1896, Poreuomenasanghensis Massa, 2013 and Tylopsiscontinua (Walker, 1869). Further, for their peculiar characteristics, two African representatives of the American genus Symmetropleura Brunner von Wattenwyl, 1878 are included in two new genera: Symmetrokarschiaafricana (Brunner von Wattenwyl, 1878), comb. n. and Symmetroraggeadirempta (Karsch, 1889), comb. n. A new genus and species from the Democratic Republic of Congo, Angustithoraxspiniger gen. n., sp. n., and a new genus and species from Tanzania, Arostratumoblitum gen. n., sp. n. are described. Finally Melidiaclaudiae sp. n. and Atlasacrisbrevipennis sp. n. are described and compared with related species.
报告了对保存在不同欧洲博物馆的许多标本的研究结果。1878年的特尔普尼斯特里尼族(Terpnistrini Brunner von Wattenwyl)被重新启用。以下物种的分布范围得到了扩展:不对称帕达尔蝗(Pardalota asymmetrica Karsch,1896年)、具齿迪氏蝗(Diogenadenticulata Chopard,1954年)、法氏迪氏蝗(Diogenafausta (Burmeister,1838年))、卡氏扁角蝗(Plangiopsis adeps Karsch,1896年)、桑根斯孔氏蝗(Poreuomena sanghensis Massa,2013年)和连续泰勒蝗(Tylopsis continua (Walker,1869年))。此外,由于其独特的特征,1878年美国属对称侧尾蝗属(Symmetropleura Brunner von Wattenwyl)的两个非洲代表被归入两个新属:非洲对称卡氏蝗(Symmetrokarschia africana (Brunner von Wattenwyl,1878年),新组合)和离散对称拉氏蝗(Symmetroraggea dirempta (Karsch,1889年),新组合)。描述了来自刚果民主共和国的一个新属新种——刺窄胸蝗(Angustithorax spiniger gen. n., sp. n.),以及来自坦桑尼亚的一个新属新种——隐匿喙蝗(Arostratum oblitum gen. n., sp. n.)。最后,描述了克劳迪娅黑蝗(Melidia claudiae sp. n.)和短翅阿特拉斯蝗(Atlasacris brevipennis sp. n.)并与相关物种进行了比较。
