discussion · Plazi

Remarks: Aphonomorphini do not have a stridulatory apparatus. However, several representatives of this group, like Aphonomorphus and Eneopteroides , have stridulatory teeth in the ventral face of the PCu vein, which is not curved. These crickets also have tympana on TI, indicating that they could emit acoustic signals or avoid predators. There are no records of acoustic communication within this tribe. The genus Podoscirtodes was included in the Podoscirtinae subfamily ( Cigliano et al. , 2022 ), but it does not belong to any group inside this subfamily. The characteristics mentioned in the diagnosis above fit the characteristics of this genus, allowing its transfer to Aphonomorphini . Furthermore, the records of Podoscirtodes are all from Neotropical region ( Cigliano et al. , 2022 ), which match the distribution of the Aphonomorphini tribe.
