A new peculiar, spiky, and yellowish species of the genus Tegotettix Hancock, 1913 is described from the Davao region of the island of Mindanao (the Philippines)-T. derijei sp. n. (Mindanao horned pygmy devil). The species is visually similar to T. cristiferus (Günther, 1935) from Borneo and T. armatus Hancock, 1913 from Borneo, which is the type species of the genus, and of which a new record from Sabah is also presented in the study. The new species is also similar to an undescribed species from Bukidnon, which we presented by photographs in its natural habitat. To date, T. armatus was known only from old descriptions and drawings and has not been reported for more than 100 years. A brief overview of the species of the genus Tegotettix, with its division into three species groups, is presented.
本文描述了产自菲律宾棉兰老岛达沃地区的一个新的、奇特的、带刺的、呈黄色的棘蝗属（Tegotettix Hancock，1913）物种——T. derijei sp. n.（棉兰老岛角状小飞蝗）。该物种在外观上与产自婆罗洲的 T. cristiferus（Günther，1935）和产自婆罗洲的 T. armatus Hancock，1913 非常相似，后者是该属的模式种，本研究还记录了来自沙巴的一个新记录。该新种也与来自布基纳法索的一个未描述的物种相似，我们在其自然栖息地的照片中展示了该物种。到目前为止，T. armatus 仅根据旧的描述和绘图得知，并且 100 多年来没有被报道过。本文还简要概述了棘蝗属的三个物种组。
