About Tettigonia caudata (Charpentier, 1845)
Tettigonia caudata, formally named Tettigonia caudata (Charpentier, 1845), is a species of bush-cricket. It belongs to the subfamily Tettigoniinae within the family Tettigoniidae. This species occurs across most of Europe, with the majority of its distribution concentrated in Eastern Europe, and it is not present in France or Spain. Male Tettigonia caudata prefer to live in tall, dense vegetation. This mesohabitat is similar to that of T. viridissima, and the two species compete with one another.
