The Gryllotalpoidea are a superfamily of insects that includes the mole crickets and the ant crickets.[1] The type genus is Gryllotalpa.[1][2][3]
Recent (2015) molecular phylogenetic studies support the monophyly of the cricket clade (Gryllidea in the Orthoptera Species File[4]) and its subdivision into two clades: Gryllotalpidae and Myrmecophilidae on the one hand, and all the other crickets (i.e. crickets sensu stricto: seven monophyletic clades, including the scaly crickets Mogoplistidae and Gryllidae).[5]
Families and subfamilies
The Orthoptera Species File lists the following families and subfamilies:[1]
- Gryllotalpidae Leach, 1815 - mole crickets
- Gryllotalpinae Leach, 1815
- †Marchandiinae Gorochov, 2010
- Scapteriscinae Zeuner, 1939
- Myrmecophilidae Saussure, 1874 - ant crickets
- Bothriophylacinae Miram, 1934
- Myrmecophilinae Saussure, 1874
