Miramella is a small genus of short-horned grasshoppers in the subfamily Melanoplinae. They are found in Europe and eastern Asia. (As of January 2019), Orthoptera Species File lists seven species in three subgenera.[1] The genus was first named in 1932.[2] Miramella is the type genus of the subtribe Miramellina (Acrididae: Melanoplinae: Podismini).[1][3]
Species in the genus Mirabella occur in a variety of habitats, with some found at up to 2,800 m (9,200 ft) above sea level in the Swiss alps, including alpine, subalpine, montane, and submontane meadows.[4] The conservation status of three species have been assessed on the IUCN Red List—Miramella carinthiaca, M. irena, and M. alpina. They are each listed as species of "least concern".[5]
