The name is derived from the greek words aphono- (ἄφωνος) meaning “silent, without voice”, referring to the absence of acoustic communication using forewings in these crickets; di- (δί‑) meaning “two, twice, double”, indicating the paired lateral lobes of the pseudoepiphallus (LLophi); and -acanthus (ἄκανΘα), meaning “thorn, spine”, in reference to the pointed morphology of LLophi.</p><p>Distribution. The genus is recorded from the Brazilian Atlantic Forest, in the states of Bahia, Paraná, and São Paulo.</p><p>Diagnosis. The genus Aphonodiacanthus Tonon &amp; Campos gen. nov. is separated from other genera of Neometrypini by the following characters: lateral ocelli present; forewings very short, not surpassing metanotum; metanotal projections absent.
