Cophopodisma Explained

Cophopodisma is a genus of Palaearctic grasshoppers in the tribe Podismini and subtribe Miramellina, erected by D.P. Dovnar-Zapolskij in 1932.[1] Species records have a highly disjointed distribution, with two species from Spain and France (as their names suggest) and C. yunnanea from China.

Species

The Orthoptera Species File[2] lists:

  1. Cophopodisma ibera Ramme, 1951
  2. Cophopodisma pyrenaea (Fischer, 1853) - type species (as Pezotettix pyrenaea Fischer)
  3. Cophopodisma yunnanea Ramme, 1939
