- Spiky pygmy devils (Tetrigidae: Discotettiginae) are a distinctive group of pygmy grasshoppers in Southeast Asia, characterized by their unique spiky projections and specific antennal features.
- This study clarifies their taxonomy by redescribing existing species, establishing a new genus for one species, and proposing new terminology for the pronotal projections, while also identifying new synonymies and descriptions for three new species.
- The research leads to the reclassification of the genus Discotettix and its reassignment to the Scelimeninae subfamily, simplifying the classification by designating the former Discotettiginae as a junior
Only two leaf-like pygmy grasshopper species and specimens are known from Madagascar: the Leatherback Pygmy Grasshopper ( Devriese, 1991) -which has a relatively low median carina of the pronotum; and the Malagasy Litterhopper ( ), herein described - which has a high median carina. is known from the rainforests around Tampolo, Manakambahiny, and Mahavelona (Foulpointe).
