Uromenus is a genus of bush crickets in the sub-family Bradyporinae and tribe Ephippigerini.[1][2]
Distribution and Description[]
Species in this genus are found throughout much of mainland Europe and northern Africa.[1] The type species U. rugosicollis occurs in Western Europe and was originally placed in the similar genus Ephippiger; it is distinguished from the latter by its pronotum, which has side keels in rear half, forming a distinct angle between top and sides. These insects are also apterous and the female ovipositors are up-curved towards tip.[3]
