Remarks.-

We tentatively identified this species to be near to S. dentiumeris (Hancock, 1907). This large pygmy grasshopper is a powerful flyer that was collected along the sandy river bank along Sungai Belalong at KBFSC. The type specimen of the species was from Brunei Darussalam. We compared our single female specimen with type images from OSF ( Cigliano et al. 2018).
