Chortopodisma is a monotypic genus of grasshopper in the tribe Podismini. Its only recognized species is Chortopodisma cobellii.[1]
Chortopodisma cobellii is similar to Pseudoprumna baldensis, with a light green coloured body and a strong shortened dark band on its flanks (in contrast to other wingless mountain grasshoppers). This species is apterous and the hearing organ is vestigial.[2]
This species is endemic to the Italian Alps, where it may be called the "Veneto Mountain Grasshopper".[1] It is only known from a small area around the Monte Pasubio in altitudes of 1600-. Adult specimens can be found from August to October.
