title: New taxa and data for Neotropical Phalangopsidae (Orthoptera, Grylloidea).
abstract: New data are presented for Neotropical Phalangopsidae (Orthoptera, Grylloidea). Four new species are described, Luzara brevipennis Desutter-Grandcolas, n. sp., Miogryllodes hebardi Desutter-Grandcolas, n. sp., Aclella brevipennis Desutter-Grandcolas, n. sp. and Aclella nova Desutter-Grandcolas, n. sp. Nine new recombinations are proposed: Lerneca digrediens (Otte, 2006) n. comb. (Amphiacusta), Lernecella erinys (Otte & Perez-Gelabert, 2009) n. comb. (Uvaroviella), Lernecella minor (Otte, 2006) n. comb. (Paraclodes), Lernecella mirabilis (Otte & Perez-Gelabert, 2009) n. comb. (Uvaroviella), Lernecella simlense (Otte & Perez-Gelabert, 2009) n. comb. (Uvaroviella), Miogryllodes diaphoros (Otte, 2006) n. comb. (Amphiacusta), Niquirana phyxelis (Otte, 2006) n. comb. (Luzara), Aclella troxalis (Otte, 2006) n. comb. (Selvacla), and Neoacla clandestina (Nischk and Otte, 2000) n. comb. (Hattersleya). The synonymy of Acla Hebard, 1928 with Aclodes Hebard, 1928 is confirmed and discussed, and Hattersleya Nischk & Otte, 2000 is newly synonymized with Neoacla Desutter, 1988. The diagnosis and/or description of several genera and species are completed.
