About Conocephalus conocephalus (Linnaeus, 1767)
Conocephalus conocephalus was first described by Carl von Linné in 1767, and it is the type species of both the conehead genus Conocephalus and the bush cricket tribe Conocephalini. No type specimens of this species are known to survive today, though researchers believe the original studied material was likely collected from Africa. Recorded occurrences of C. conocephalus have been documented in southern Europe (including France) and across Africa.
