            <p> Tribe  Otteiini Koçak &amp; Kemal, 2009</p>
            <p> Emended diagnosis: Small to medium-sized (10–28 mm.). Body coloration reddish-brown or yellowish-brown (rarely dark brown) or paler in the troglobitic species. Body moderately to distinctly elongated. Head ovate in frontal view; vertex strongly curved and almost straight to roundly angulate junction with the front; space between antennal sockets very narrow (one-fifth to two-fifths of the antennal scapus). Eyes in troglophilic species are normally pigmented, small, subtriangular, and smaller than the scapus; in troglobitic species, they are reduced in size and only partly pigmented or absent. Ocelli absent. Maxillary palpi long, slender, third and fourth segments almost straight and subequal, fifth segment upcurved, distally broadened and compressed. Legs elongated and longer in troglobitic specimens; fore tibia without tympana; fore and mid tibiae with two apical spurs on each side; hind tibia mostly with three apical spurs on each side. Tegmina generally absent, if present, thick and shiny. Abdomen with or without median glandular orifices in the inter-segmental membrane beneath the hind margins of tergites (the number of orifices and the tergite they occur vary interspecifically); cerci very long and thin; distal valves of ovipositor laterally compressed, little broader than the shaft, narrowly lanceolate with smooth margins and sharp tip. Male genitalia: Mostly tubuliform, elongated or compacted; ectophallic fold membranous or moderately sclerotized, pseudepiphallic median lophi with a medial notch with different forms; arc short and poorly up-curved; pseudepiphallic paramere with or without additional projections, endophallic apodeme usually membranous; endophallic sclerite generally sclerotized; ectophallic apodeme slim (except  Venegascophus species ); in continental species the rami is wide and curved, giving the genitalia a cylinder shape at base; in insular species, the rami is thin, but in all species separated basally. </p>
            <p> Taxa included: West Indian taxa:  Otteius (Type genus: 1 species from Cuba),  Cubacophus (4 species from Cuba and Cayman Islands) and  Dominicophus Yong, 2017 (2 species Hispaniola). Continental taxa:  Paracophus Chopard, 1947 (3 species—Northeast Mexico: Cohauila, Nuevo León and Tamaulipas),  Tohila Hubbell, 1938 (1 species— Yucatan, Mexico),  Hubbellcophus n. gen. (4 species—Northeast Mexico: Tamaulipas, San Luis Potosí, Querétaro and Hidalgo),  Venegascophus n. gen. (2 species—Northeast Mexico: Tamaulipas) and  Hortacophus n. gen. (1 species—Northeast Mexico: Tamaulipas and San Luis Potosí). </p>
            <p> Comments. This tribe to date only included the Antillean genera (Ruíz-Baliú &amp; Otte, 1997; Yong, 2017). Hubbell (1972), in his contribution to cave crickets, reviews the genus  Paracophus s.l. , and makes a comparison with similar genera such as  Cophus (Phalangopsidae) ,  Trigonidomimus Caudell, 1912 and  Tohila (included in  Gryllidae :  Pentacentrinae by Hubbell, 1938), the author concludes that although they are similar taxa in their cave life habits, they are not related taxa and therefore are not grouped, and supports that  Paracophus s.l. and  Cophus should be kept in  Phalangopsinae (by then it was a subfamily of  Gryllidae ) and closer to  Amphiacusta than to the other genera, which he kept them in  Pentacentrinae . </p>
            <p> Recently, Gorochov (2014) included  Otteiini as a valid tribe of the subfamily  Phalangopsinae (Phalangopsidae) and revalidated the genus  Cubacophus previously synonymized under  Cophus by Otte &amp; Perez-Gelabert (2009), and accepted the changes of tribe and genus names proposed by Koçak &amp; Kemal (2009). Furthermore, Gorochov suggests that according to the characteristics of the male genitalia “the spermatophore is with a rather long collum (= neck, narrow part between ampulla and anchora or attachment plate of spermatophore) which is formed in these folds. If it is correct, this character is unique for  Phalangopsinae and other cricket taxa”. </p>
            <p> When studying the continental genera  Tohila and  Paracophus and comparing their external morphology and genitalia structures, their relationship with the Caribbean  Otteiini was evident, so it is necessary to include them in the same tribe. On the other hand, when comparing the status of the Caribbean taxa of the tribe, these are separated into three genera, mainly by the presence or absence of the glandular organ on the third and fourth tergites, developedment of apical spurs, and variations on “epiphallus” = pseudepiphallic median lophi (Ruíz-Baliú &amp; Otte, 1997; Yong, 2017). Due to the necessity of providing uniform treatment to all taxa of the tribe (both continental and Antillean), two options arise: 1) Include all species in a single genus with multiple species groups or subgenera. 2) Follow the traditional line, in which the three Antillean genera remain valid, and delimit the continental taxa. We choose the second option, followed by those who have contributed to this tribe in the past (Ruíz-Baliú &amp; Otte, 1997; Yong, 2017; Gorochov, 2014). Thus, a key to genera identification and differentiation is provided, and the genera and species are described ignoring the characters already mentioned for the tribe: </p>

            <p> Tohila Hubbell, 1938</p>
            <p> http://lsid.speciesfile.org/urn:lsid:  Orthoptera .speciesfile.org:TaxonName:30553 </p>
            <p>Diagnosis. Eyes not reduced (as long as scapus) and normally pigmented (Fig. 1A). Anterior margin of pronotum with conspicuous setae; lateral lobes of pronotum not expanded laterally and without carinae dividing the pronotal disc and the lateral lobes. Male tegmina thickened, covering about half of the abdomen and without stridulation file, veins longitudinally distributed, hind wings as small rudiments (Fig. 1). Female tegmina ovoid, not touching dorsally, being as lateral pads and extended to metanotum. Legs relatively short and stout, hind tibia with two dorsal spurs on each margin; all tarsi slender and very elongated, first tarsomere unarmed dorsally and as long as half of its respective tibiae (Fig. 2). Abdominal tergites unspecialized; male epiproctus subtriangular, wider than long, with straight margins and rounded apex. Cerci very slender and extremely elongated longer than the body (Fig. 1B). Ovipositor nearly straight, four-fifths as long as the hind femur, apex slender and briefly lanceolate (Fig. 2). Male genitalia: compact, ectophallic fold membranous and poorly developed; pseudepiphallic median lophi with a wide medial notch; pseudepiphallic paramere rounded, undivided and with several hairs at apex; endophallic apodeme moderately sclerotized, with cartilaginous appearance and connected to endophallic sclerite which is well sclerotized; ectophallic apodeme slim, curved in lateral view and with braches divergent.</p>
            <p> Taxa included.  Tohila atelomma Hubbell, 1938 . </p>
            <p> Comments. Hubbell (1938) originally included  Tohila , in the subfamily  Pentacentrinae , and moved  Lissotrachelus Brunner von Wattenwyl, 1893 and  Trigonidomimus Caudell, 1912 to the same subfamily. The three genera were placed within the tribe  Lissotrachelini , also proposed by the author. However, posteriorly he compared  Tohila and  Trigonidomimus with  Paracophus and  Cophus , but maintained his position in keeping them in  Pentacentrinae (Hubbell, 1972) . Desutter (1987; 1990) suggests an uncertain position, but since then, no additional specimens have been studied, nor any new taxonomic position has been proposed for  Tohila . </p>
            <p> In this contribution, it is suggested to place it in the tribe  Otteiini , as it fits the external morphology and genitalia characters, mentioned in the diagnosis provided here.  Tohila is the genus with more developed tegmina of the tribe, and the male genitalia is similar to the structure of  Venegascophus n. gen. , especially in the shape of the dorsal edges of the lateral lophi. </p>

            <p> Paracophus Chopard, 1947 nov. sensu </p>
            <p> http://lsid.speciesfile.org/urn:lsid:  Orthoptera .speciesfile.org:TaxonName:28340 </p>
            <p>Diagnosis. Eyes not reduced (as wide as half of scapus) and normally pigmented (Fig. 3, 5). Pronotum subquadrate, little broader than long, anterior and posterior margins weakly concave, side margins broadly convex with anterior portion wider than mid-portion, lower parts of lateral lobes separated from disk by a shallow curved impression (Fig. 7A, E, I). Male tegmina mostly covering by pronotal disc, thickened, very short and broad, covering the weakly sclerotized mesonotum, their distal margins gently convex, outer and inner angles rounded, inner margins slightly overlapping; venation indistinct; stridulatory file present and functional (Fig. 7A, E, I). Female tegmina reduced to minute oval lateral rudiments, often hidden under the edge of pronotum. Legs relatively short and stout, hind tibia with four dorsal spurs on each margin; all tarsi slender and elongated, first tarsomere armed dorsally and as long as a third of its respective tibiae (Fig. 3A, 5A). Abdominal tergites unspecialized (glandular apparatus present); male epiproctus subtriangular, as wide as long, with straight margins and rounded apex (Fig. 3B, 5D). Cerci slender and barely longer than the hind femur (Fig.3, 5). Ovipositor slightly decurved, three-fourths as long as the hind femur, apex dorsally rounded and distally sharp (Fig. 3E). Male genitalia: tubuliform and elongate; ectophallic fold membranous; pseudepiphallic median lophi with a medial notch and, on the posterior lateral borders, with a spine-shaped projection that curves upward in lateral view; pseudepiphallic paramere with three projections, one ventrally and two posteriorly; endophallic apodeme moderately sclerotized, with cartilaginous appearance and connected to endophallic sclerite which is well sclerotized; ectophallic apodeme slim, curved in lateral view and parallel one branch with the other (Fig. 4, 6).</p>
            <p> Taxa included:  Paracophus subapterus Chopard, 1947 (Type species),  P. velazquezi n. sp. and  P. victoriensis n. sp.</p>
            <p> Comments. In the original description of the genus, two species were described  Paracophus apterus Chopard, 1947 and  P. subapterus . Chopard (1947) described  Paracophus , comparing it with  Cophus , but differentiating them mainly by the armament of the hind tibia. Subsequently, Hubbell (1972) published a complete review of the genus, expanding the morphological diagnostic characteristics, describing six additional species, and dividing them into two species groups, according to the morphology derived from their adaptations for cave life. Hubbell, differs from Chopard, arguing that  Paracophus does not belong to the same group of  Cophus , and suggest  Paracophus may be more related to  Tohila and  Trigonidomimus (currently in  Pentacentrinae ). Finally, Desutter (1987, 1990) places the genus in the Luzarae group (  Luzarinae :  Luzarini ). </p>
            <p> Since Hubbell’s review, no new species or records have been added for  Paracophus , and its status has not been reviewed. With additional specimens studied in the present contribution, it is suggested to include this genus in the tribe  Otteiini of the subfamily  Phalangopsinae , supporting Chopard’s initial opinion, in which it is established that  Paracophus and  Cophus belong to the same group. It is necessary to divide this genus into three additional genera: Hubbellcophus  n. gen. ,  Venegascophus n. gen. and  Hortacophus n. gen. , described later in this paper. </p>
            <p> Key to  Paracophus species</p>
            <p>1. Lower edges of lateral lobes moderately expanded laterally (Fig. 7A, E); paired glandular openings in intersegmental membranes behind tergites present from the fourth to seventh or fourth to fifth segments. The median lophi notch is moderately narrow and deep, pseudepiphallic parameres well-divided into two or three processes (Fig. 7 B-D, 7F-H)................ 2</p>
            <p> – Lower edges of lateral lobes notably expanded to the sides (Fig. 7I), paired glandular openings in intersegmental membranes behind tergites present from the fourth to sixth segment. Median lophi notch very narrow and shallow (Fig. 7K), pseudepiphallic parameres slightly divided (Fig. 7K, L)........................................................  P. subapterus</p>
            <p> 2. Tergal glands between the fourth to seventh segments (Fig. 3B). Pseudepiphallic median lophi with a U-shaped notch (Fig. 7B); pseudepiphallic parameters divided into three rounded processes (Fig. 7C); lateral lophi in lateral view, with two spines: one longer dorsally, and another shorter apically (Fig. 7D).........................................  P. velazquezi n. sp.</p>
            <p> – Tergal glands between the fourth and fifth abdominal tergites (Fig. 3D). Pseudepiphallic median lophi with a V-shaped notch (Fig. 3F); pseudepiphallic parameres divided into two processes, one rounded and another hook-shaped (Fig. 3G); lateral lophi in lateral view with only one long dorsal spine at the apex (Fig. 3H)..............................

            </p>
            <p>Description. Male. Mid-sized for the genus, the whole body is covered with small hairs, giving it a tomentose texture. Coloration. Ocher brown all over the body (Fig. 3A, B), black eyes (Fig. 3C), and the lower border of the cephalic capsule outlined in black at the level of the genae. Meso-, metanotum and first abdominal tergite with a darker tonality than the rest of the body (Fig. 3A). Head. Rounded, frons between antennal scapes very narrow; all ocelli reduced and not visible, eyes small and triangular-shaped in lateral view (Fig. 3C). Maxillary palp with five palpomeres, first and second shorter, third larger than fourth, and the fifth-largest is curved and rounded at apex. Thorax. Pronotal disc longer than wide and with curved dorsal edge in lateral view (Fig. 3A), straight anterior and posterior edges in the dorsal view, lateral lobes with rounded edges and moderately expanded, especially in the anterior half. Mesonotum with the dorsal surface sclerotized (visible when the wings are removed), metanotum as long and wide as the first abdominal segment and without any modification (Fig. 3B). Wings. Tegmina thickened, with diffuse venation and functional stridulating file, hind wings absent (Fig. 3B). Legs. Coxae broad and moderately elongated; fore and mid femur laterally compressed and without spines, fore and mid tibiae with three small spines on each ventral margin, ventral apex with two mobile spurs of similar size, tarsomeres dorsally unarmed, first tarsomere notoriously elongated, the second tarsomere reduced. Hind femur with a median line that goes from the base to the apex crossing the entire external face at the middle, additionally on the external face of the hind femur, faint whitish-yellow stripes cross from the dorsal edge to the midline of the femur; hind tibia with 4 spurs on each dorsal margin, the apex of the tibia with three spurs on outer and inner margin, medial spur the longest and the dorsal spur the smallest; first tarsomere elongated with two rows of dorsal denticulations with seven denticles on each row, also with one apical spurs on each side. Abdomen. Tergal glands between the fourth to seventh segments little visible and located between intersegmental membranes, slightly raising the dorsal margin of the posterior edge of the fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh abdominal segment. Epiproctus subtriangular, wider than long; cerci as long as the hind femur; subgenital plate rectangular, longer than wide, with a straight posterior edge (Fig. 3B). Genitalia. Pseudepiphallic median lophi elongated, with a moderately deep “U” shaped notch; lateral lophi moderately prolonged and with a rounded distal edge in dorsal view (Fig. 4A, B); in lateral view, extended into a conspicuous spine and a smaller spine posteriorly, both at the apex (Fig. 4C); ectophallic fold membranous, conical and prominent (Fig. 4A); pseudepiphallic parameres with the distal processes rounded and exceeding the length of the median lophi in ventral view (Fig. 4B); arc narrow and not up-curved. Endophallic sclerite sclerotized, tubuliform, with three medium-sized processes at the apex; endophallic apodeme with cartilaginous appearance, widened at the base, the anterior border with two undulations, and the posterior portion tapering to connect with the endophallic sclerite (Fig. 4B). Ectophallic apodeme thin and undulating towards the basal region of the genitalia; rami shoulder blade-shaped, widened in lateral view, and internally concave (Fig. 4C).</p>
            <p> Female. Similar to the male in appearance, the paratype female is subadult and does not have wing outlines, as it happens with the adult females of  P. subapterus , possibly in its last molt, the tegmina would appear (Fig. 3D, E). Lager than males and darker; no glandular modification is present on the abdominal tergites; epiproctus triangular and angled apically. ovipositor with lanceolate apex (Fig. 3E). </p>
            <p>Measurements (mm): Male holotype: LB: 12. Pr: 2.5. Teg.: 1.1. HF: 8. HT: 8.5. Subadult female paratype: LB: 17.5. Pr: 3.2. HF: 9. HT: 8.8.</p>
            <p> Comments. The specimens were collected in an unnamed vertical cavern with a narrow entrance. We raided to a depth of 5 m, from then on, a rugged and deep fall was observed. The species co-inhabits with other  Nemoricantor undescribed species, and with frogs that possibly prey on those crickets. Specimens of  P. velazquezi n. sp. are very fast, and when they perceive white light, they quickly hide between the cracks, making it difficult to capture (Fig. 8A). </p>

            <p> http://lsid.speciesfile.org/urn:lsid:  Orthoptera .speciesfile.org:TaxonName:514181 </p>
            <p>Etymology. It alludes to Cd. Victoria, Tamaulipas, on the outskirts of that city, specimens of the type series were collected.</p>
            <p> Type material.  Holotype. Male. Mexico, Tamaulipas, Cd. Victoria, “Parque Recreativo Los Troncones”. 23.7788, -99.2150. 400 m. O.J. Cadena-Castañeda &amp; M. Gonzalez leg. (CAUD) . Paratype. 3 inmmature females, same data as holotype. </p>
            <p> Description. Male. Similar in appearance to  P. velazquezi n. sp. , with darker tones in its coloration but with the same pattern (Fig. 5). Structure of the head, thorax, tegmina, and legs without variation for the description provided for  P. velazquezi n. sp. Abdomen. Tergal glands between the fourth and fifth abdominal tergites, with the posterior edges of these tergites moderately elevated in the dorsal region and accompanied by a tuft of longer hairs (Fig. 5B, D). Epiproctus triangular, as long as wide, with a rounded distal edge (Fig. 5D). Subgenital plate rectangular, longer than wide, and with a convex posterior edge. Genitalia. Pseudepiphallic median lophi elongated, with a moderately deep “V” shaped notch (Fig. 6A); lateral lophi moderately prolonged and with a rounded distal edge in dorsal view (Fig. 6A, B), in lateral view, extending into a conspicuous spine (longer than  P. velazquezi n. sp. ) and without a smaller spine posteriorly (Fig. 6C); ectophallic fold membranous, conical and prominent (Fig. 6A, B); pseudepiphallic parameres with a distal process rounded and other hook-shaped processes internally; arc narrow and not up-curved (Fig. 6B). Endophallic sclerite sclerotized, tubuliform, with a spine on each lateral apex edge; endophallic apodeme cartilaginous, connected with endophallic sclerite without constricting or getting thin and ending in two lobes in the anterior region of the apodeme (Fig. 6B). Ectophallic apodeme thin, and undulating towards the basal region of the genitalia (Fig. 6C); rami shoulder blade-shaped, widened in lateral view and internally concave (Fig. 6A, B). </p>
            <p> Female. Unknown adult females (Fig. 8B). Measurements (mm): LB: 11.5. Pr: 2.5. Teg.: 1. HF: 8. HT: 8.5. Comments. In the book “Saltamontes y esperanzas del Noreste de Mexico ” by Barrientos-Lozano et al. (2013), possibly a female of this species is photographed (page 97), but identified as  Neometrypus sp. (currently included in  Gryllidae :  Oecanthinae :  Paroecanthini ), ruling out the presence of this South American taxon in Mexico. </p>

            <p> Hubbellcophus Cadena-Castañeda n. gen.</p>
            <p> http://lsid.speciesfile.org/urn:lsid:  Orthoptera .speciesfile.org:TaxonName:514182 </p>
            <p> Diagnosis. Eyes reduced, either small, less than half as broad as scapus, and with reduced pigmentation, or absent (Fig. 9A, 10 A-D). Antennae extraordinarily elongate, being from two to six times longer than the length of the body. Pronotum subquadrate, lower margins of lateral lobes moderately expanded to the sides (Fig. 10 E-H). Apterous species. Legs relatively long and slender, hind tibia armed dorsally with three to five spurs on both margins; all tarsi very slender and elongated, first tarsomere unarmed dorsally and as long as a third of its respective tibiae. Abdominal tergites specialized, usually with plate-shaped extensions in the tergal segments of moderate size or very conspicuous (Fig. 9), and dorsal glands (Fig. 10 E-H). Male epiproctus quadrangular, with finger-like lobes on the lateral-distal margins. Cerci slender and barely longer than the hind femur (Fig. 10 E-H). Ovipositor usually as long as the hind femur, apex dorsally straight and with small dentation (Fig. 12). Male genitalia moderately tubuliform; ectophallic fold membranous; pseudepiphallic median lophi with a medial notch and on the posterior lateral borders with a long spine-shaped projection that curves upward in lateral view (most prominent than  Paracophus s.s. species); pseudepiphallic paramere with two projections, one ventrally and another posteriorly; endophallic apodeme sclerotized and Y-shaped; ectophallic apodeme thick, slightly curved in lateral view and, in ventral view, the branches are divergent (Fig.11). </p>
            <p> Etymology. Dedicated to the memory of Prof. Theodore Huntington Hubbell (1897-1989), an eminent orthopterist and as a recognition of his important and fundamental contributions to cave crickets (phalangopsids and rhaphidophorids). With the ending -  cophus , referring to its closeness to that genus. Gender is designated as neutral. </p>
            <p> Taxa included:  Hubbellcophus placonotus (Hubbell, 1972) n. comb. , (type species),  H. caecus (Hubbell, 1972) n. comb. ,  H. cladonotus (Hubbell, 1972) n. comb. and  H. lippus (Hubbell, 1972) n. comb.</p>
            <p> Comments. This new genus is derived from the second group proposed by Hubbell (1972) “GROUP II. Troglobitic species with relatively long legs, pale coloration, eyes reduced or absent, and reduced hind leg armature”, adding  H. placonotus n. comb. , included in the first group by Hubbell, but which fits this group by its anatomical characteristics and male genitalia. </p>
            <p> Unfortunately, the male phallic complex of  H. lippus n. comb. was not described, since the only known male genitalia was lost, so its generic placement is not completely clear. Even this species not have the typical epiproctus of the genus  Hubbellcophus , other morphological characteristics fit this new genus, being closer to  H. caecus n. comb.</p>
            <p> Key to  Hubbellcophus n. gen. species </p>

            <p> Otteius Koçak &amp; Kemal, 2009</p>
            <p> http://lsid.speciesfile.org/urn:lsid:  Orthoptera .speciesfile.org:TaxonName:27818 </p>
            <p>Diagnosis. Eyes not reduced (as wide as half of the scapus) and usually pigmented. Pronotum wider than long, with lower margins of lateral lobes moderately expanded laterally. Apterous species. Legs exceptionally long and slender, hind tibia always with 3 dorsal spurs on each side; all tarsi slender and elongated; first tarsomere armed dorsally and as long as a third of its respective tibiae. Abdominal tergites unspecialized and without glandular apparatus. Male epiproctus longer than wide. Cerci slender and barely longer than the hind femur. Ovipositor slightly up-curved, three-fourths as long as the hind femur, with apex dorsally straight, and with very small serrulations. Male genitalia: compact, ectophallic fold membranous and poorly developed; pseudepiphallic median lophi short, and on the posterior lateral borders with a finger-like projection; pseudepiphallic paramere with a cylindrical projection apically; endophallic apodeme membranous and short; ectophallic apodeme thick, ribbon-shaped and upcurved in lateral view (Fig. 15 A-C).</p>
            <p> Taxa included:  Otteius thoracicus (Saussure, 1874) . </p>
            <p> Comments. This is the genus with the largest known crickets of the tribe, exceeding 20 mm., in contrast to the other  Otteiini taxa that do not reach these measurements. The male genitalia resemble more the continental taxa than insular genera, especially the median lophi and lateral lophi of the pseudepiphallus. On the other hand, the first tarsomere armed dorsally of the hind leg is observed in most continental taxa (except  Tohila and  Hubbellcophus n. gen. ), but not in the other two insular genera, these characters suggest a greater association of  Otteius with the continental genera than Antillean taxa. </p>
