Type species: Adicophasma spinosus Engel & Grimaldi, 2004 , by original designation.
Composition. Nowadays this genus consists of three species from Baltic amber known by nymphs only. A new species from Danish amber is described below.
Diagnosis. This genus characterized by profemora with strong spine-like bristles ventrally and by abdominal and especially thoracic tergites with numerous spine-like bristles. By these features Adicophasma is easy recognizable from both Raptophasma and Juramantophasma .
Remarks. Zompro (2008) synonymized genus Adicophasma under Raptophasma and A. spinosa under R. kerneggeri . Here, the name Adicophasma is resurrected from synonymy and this taxon is considered as distinct genus.
