( Fig. 1 View FIGURE 1 A)
Cacoplistes Brunner von Wattenwyl, 1873: 169. Cachoplistus Saussure 1877: 325 .
Type species. Cachoplistus brunnerianus Saussure, 1877
Other species included. Cacoplistes (Cacoplistes) indicus Chopard, 1935 , Cacoplistes (Cacoplistes) proximus Gorochov, 2003 , Cacoplistes (Laminogryllus) derelictus Gorochov, 2003 , Cacoplistes (Laminogryllus) rogenhoferi Saussure, 1877 and Cacoplistes (Laminogryllus) westwoodianus Saussure, 1877 .
Distribution. Northern India, Nouvelle Hollande (?).
Diagnosis. Large species. Pronotum large, concave dorsally; dorsal disc and lateral lobes with distinctly carinated margins. Eyes small, protruding. Fastigium short and narrow, much narrower than the scape; flat, separated from the rounded vertex by a transverse furrow. Antennae thick. Maxillary palpi short; joint 5 concave dorsally, greatly widened in distal half. Legs relatively short; femora higher than wide, FIII only slightly inflated. TI with an inner tympanum; two short and thick ventral apical spurs. TII with two short and thick ventral apical spurs. TIII flattened dorsally, with strong lateral margins; three apical spurs on each side, widely separated from each other: outer spurs very small, the median the longest; inner spurs longer but short, the median and dorsal subequal; subapical spurs very short hardly distinct from the thick spines. Basitarsomeres all higher than wide; basitarsomeres III strongly furrowed dorsally, with both inner and outer thick spines. Males FWs much longer than the body; stridulatory apparatus complete, the harp with several close, parallel veins, the mirror separated into several wide cells by parallel crossing veins, falsely prolonged by the cell between the mirror and the chords, and circled distally by an empty cell. TIII spurs not modified. Male genitalia (see Fig. II (1–14) in Gorochov 2003b): pseudepiphallic sclerite long and thick, variously membranous dorsally, with a small, subapical median process, and more or less prolonged distally; rami thick and long, separated from pseudepiphallus. Pseudepiphallic parameres made of one or two sclerites, more or less hook-like or spiny. Ectophallic apodemes long and thick; arc thick. Ectophallic fold short, its ventral sclerite bifid basally. Endophallic sclerite with three distal prongs, the lateral ones the longest; endophallic apodeme long and flat. No endophallic cavity. Female FWs longer than the body; strong parallel veins separated by many small cells. Subgenital plate wider than long. Ovipositor apex not widened, without ornamentation. Female genitalia: copulatory papilla nested in a thick membrane ( Fig. 1 View FIGURE 1 A); small, much wider than long.
