Conocephalus dorsalis, the short-winged conehead, is a bush cricket species belonging to the family Tettigoniidae, subfamily Conocephalinae. It is a hygrophilous species, and is therefore common in wet meadows and slow-flowing streams with floating plants, lowland peatlands, reed beds. It is found throughout Europe and it is common in northern Germany, Britain and southern Scandinavia.[2] File:Conocephalus dorsalis -- Kurzflügelige Schwertschrecke.webm
