Subtribe Anurogryllina View in CoL

Among five genera of this tribe, only Anurogryllus is divided into three subgenera.

The differences between these genera and subgenera are given in a key below (all the species names listed here are given in original binomen).

1. Body apterous or with very short tegmina (visible part of tegminal dorsal field not longer than pronotum; Figs 53–56 View Figs 53–64 ), which in male with partly reduced stridulatory apparatus ( Figs 100, 101 View Figs 100–119 ); tympana absent; male genitalia with posterior part of epiphallus undivided into a pair of distinct lobes or slightly bilobed; Figs 1, 2, 4, 5 View Figs 1–12 )..... ....................................... 2
