Jaiswara, Ranjana & Robillard, Tony, 2022, A new species of Indigryllus (Orthoptera, Gryllidae, Eneopterinae, Xenogryllini) from Kerala, India, with first data on acoustics and natural habitat, Zootaxa 5205 (6), pp. 532-546 : 536

Indigryllus sp.

( Fig. 1 )

A male Indigryllus sp. was observed in Amboli in Pune , Maharastra, India based on the photographs uploaded on iNaturalist website ( Fig. 1 ). Their details are as follows: INDIA, 1 adult male, Amboli, Maharashtra; 15.964716, 74.003571; June 2016; https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/57617074; observation by P. J. Ullal .

This record may correspond to a different species of Indigrylllus. Given the geographical complexity of the region and the subtle differences existing between I. kudremu and I. sagani sp. nov., more information is necessary, including study of male genitalia.
