The Eneopterinae[1] are a subfamily of crickets, in the family Gryllidae, based on the type genus Eneoptera. It is one of several groups widely described as "true crickets",[2] but this subfamily may also referred to in American English as "bush crickets". Of the more than 500 species that make up this subfamily, most occur in moist, tropical habitats. These insects are medium to large and brown or gray in color. They eat plant leaves, flowers, and fruits and can occasionally cause economic damage. Their eggs are deposited in pith, bark, or wood.[3] Eneopterinae show a great diversity in stridulatory apparatus, signals emitted, and associated behaviour.[4]
