TL;DR: From orthopteran surveys in and around the Bukit Timah Nature Reserve and the Central Catchment Nature Reserve, three species of the Asiophlugis were recorded and combinatio nova, also known as the missing marvellous katydid, was rediscovered.
Abstract: This paper reports the genus Asiophlugis Gorochov, 1998 in Singapore. Asiophlugis is a member of the subfamily Meconematinae Burmeister, 1838 (Orthoptera: Tettigoniidae). From orthopteran surveys in and around the Bukit Timah Nature Reserve (BTNR) and the Central Catchment Nature Reserve (CCNR), three species of the Asiophlugis were recorded. Asiophlugis thaumasia (Hebard, 1922), combinatio nova, also known as the missing marvellous katydid (Davison et al., 2008), was rediscovered. A single male was previously collected and described in Singapore in 1922 (Hebard, 1922). This species was not reported since then and was listed in the Singapore Red Data Book as critically endangered or presumed nationally extinct (Davison et al., 2008).
