Genus Cymatomera Schaum

http://lsid.speciesfile.org/urn:lsid: Orthoptera .speciesfile.org:TaxonName:4413

Six species of Cymatomera are known occurring in West, South West and East tropical Africa. C. denticollis Schaum and C. paradoxa Gerstäcker occur in Tanzania. As given above Cymatomera and Cymatomerella are best distinguished by the venation of the tegmina. In Cymatomera both veins run in parallel closely attached to each other along their whole length, while in Cymatomerella these veins are clearly separated and connected by numerous short crossveins.
