TaxID: 1634087
Basic Information
Nomadacris septemfasciata
Red Locust
The red locust (Nomadacris septemfasciata) is a large grasshopper species found in sub-Saharan Africa. Its name refers to the colour of its hind wings. It is sometimes called the criquet nomade in French, due to its nomadic movements in the dry season. When it forms swarms, it is described as a locust. Nomadacris septemfasciata is in the family Acrididae and is the only member of the genus Nomadacris. The genus Nomadacris was erected in 1923 by Boris Uvarov and the species was named originally as Acridium septemfasciatum by Jean Guillaume Audinet-Serville in 1838. It is placed in the subfamily Cyrtacanthacridinae, the bird locusts. Other species previously placed in Nomadacris are now considered part of the genus Patanga.
