A NEW GENUS OF PYRGOMORPHIDAE (ACRIDOIDEA: ORTHOPTERA) FROM THE ISLAND OF SOCOTRA1
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 31 May 2012
Abstract
A new, endemic monotypic genus of Pyrgomorphidae, Xenephias, is described from Socotra. The single known species, X. socotranus n. sp., proves to be a member of the widely distributed tribe Sphenariini. It shows some similarities to eastern Asiatic genera, but is apparently closest to the isolated east African genus Sphenexia Karsch.
