Description
Summary:Three species of true grasshoppers, Sathrophyllia rugosa (Linnaeus, 1758), Mecopoda fallax He, 2019 and Mecopoda elongata (Linnaeus, 1758) (Orthoptera, Tettigoniidae), have been discovered in the Cần Giờ Mangrove Biosphere Reserve, a protected area in southern Vietnam dominated by marine ecosystems and mangrove forests. These species have never been previously recorded in the reserve or southern Vietnam. If widely distributed M. fallax and M. elongata has been indicated for the territory of Vietnam, including through citizen science observations (GBIF), then S. rugosa is recorded in the territory of Vietnam for the first time.
