FEF7392C14775EE597B4FF6F48A43C8D.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. Differentiated from other species by the shape of the phallus apex (Fig. 7) and furculae (Fig. 8) of males. Phallus apex similar to O. karavica, but cingular valves are slightly wider basally and valves are more pointed apically and have wider notches (Fig. 7). Furculae of O. agrafae are distinctively slender and elongated (Fig. 8). Furculae wide at the base with lateral margins angling inward, tapering distally and redirecting outward near the apex, which is slightly lobulated (Fig. 8). Females indistinguishable from other species.	en	Trillo, Marina, Ortego, Joaquín (2025): Geometric morphometric characterization of the Balkan alpine grasshopper genus Oropodisma Uvarov, 1942 (Orthoptera, Acrididae, Melanoplinae), with description of two new species.

FEF7392C14775EE597B4FF6F48A43C8D.taxon	description	Description. Male: small to medium-sized body (15.7 – 16.7 mm; Fig. 4 A). Tegmina and wings absent. Head much shorter than pronotum, with frons slightly oblique. Fastigium sulcate. Eyes elliptical and obliquely flattened at the base. Vertical diameter of eyes approximately 1.1 times larger than the horizontal diameter. Eyes dark brown to nearly black, presenting conspicuous light brown spots. Antennae stout, filiform, and short, similar to or slightly longer than the combined length of head and pronotum. The basal half of antennae is testaceous or yellowish, gradually darkening toward the tips. Pronotum short and broad, dorsally convex; anterior margin straight, posterior margin slightly convex. Pronotum with a densely punctured surface, lacking lateral carinae, and presenting continuous and deep transverse sulci. Prozona 1.8 times the length of the metazona. Prozona nearly cylindrical; metazona subcylindrical, slightly widening posteriorly. Median carina only visible and slightly raised in metazona. Dorsal surface of the pronotum black with a slight metallic sheen, similar to that on the top of the head and dorsal side of the abdomen. Lateral lobes of the pronotum with a characteristic whitish testaceous coloration, matching that of the thoracic sternum and the ventral parts of the head, including frons, genae, clypeus, labrum, mandibles and maxillae and labium. Abdomen slender, dorsally black with a distinctive bright yellowish median stripe. Only the lower margins of mesonotum and metanotum bear a small testaceous stripe. Tympanal organ absent. Anterior and intermediate femora distinctly incrassate. Hind femora are robust, approximately 3.1 times as long as their maximum width, and present well-developed upper and lower carinae. Outer surface of the hind femur reddish to light brown; femora present two dark fasciae in the upper-inner area; inner surface testaceous with a blackish basal spot. Knees mostly black. Tibiae generally grayish-bluish. Last tergite bearing distinctly slender and elongated furculae (as in Fig. 8 I). Furculae broad at the base, with lateral margins angling inward, tapering distally, and curving outward near the apex, which is slightly lobulated. Supra-anal plate triangular, with a deep median sulcus (as in Fig. 8 I). Cerci small, narrowly triangular and shorter than the supra-anal plate. Phallus apex with rounded cingular valves distinctly wider and longer than the valves (as in Fig. 7 I). Valves taper apically, with straight lateral margins, a pointed apex, and broad internal notches (as in Fig. 7 I). Female: small to medium-sized body (18.3 – 20.6 mm), larger and more robust than males (Fig. 4 B). Pronotum broader and more trapezoidal than in males. Pronotum presents continuous transverse sulci, but these are less deeply impressed than in males. Antennae much shorter than the combined length of the head and pronotum. Posterior margin of the pronotum bordered with alternating light testaceous and dark stripes. Abdomen considerably stouter than in males. Anterior and intermediate femora not or only slightly incrassate. Supra-anal plate triangular, with short, conical cerci. Ovopositor valves robust, strongly sinuate, with a curved, pointed apex. Lower valve with two acute lateral teeth. Other characteristics resemble the male.	en	Trillo, Marina, Ortego, Joaquín (2025): Geometric morphometric characterization of the Balkan alpine grasshopper genus Oropodisma Uvarov, 1942 (Orthoptera, Acrididae, Melanoplinae), with description of two new species.

3B9AA579B525549D8E06D1707190F6D5.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. Differentiated from other species by the shape of the phallus apex (Fig. 7) and furculae (Fig. 8) of males. Phallus apex similar to O. macedonica, but presenting wider cingular valves, which lateral margins converge medially and become more pointed toward the tips (Fig. 7). Unlike O. macedonica, valves do not exhibit a basal swelling and remain straight or slightly concave at the base. Furculae of O. tzoumerkae present a wide base, similar to O. karavica and O. lagrecai, but are more elongated (Fig. 8). In comparison with O. lagrecai, furculae of O. tzoumerkae narrow more markedly medially, becoming slenderer (Fig. 8). Furculae of O. karavica show a very sharp angular bending, with a characteristic internal notch, whereas in O. tzoumerkae the curvature is more gradual and smooth (Fig. 8). Females indistinguishable from other species.	en	Trillo, Marina, Ortego, Joaquín (2025): Geometric morphometric characterization of the Balkan alpine grasshopper genus Oropodisma Uvarov, 1942 (Orthoptera, Acrididae, Melanoplinae), with description of two new species.
