Abstract
This work is based mainly on field work conducted by the authors during three expeditions in 1980 and 1982 to Kenya, Tanzania, and South Africa. Twenty five species are discussed. Of these seven were discovered by the authors, four from Kenya and Tanzania, and three from South Africa. Three species are transferred to Teleogryllus from other (afer from Gryllus, pulchriceps and soror from Platygryllus ). Fourteen species (burri, wittei, macrurus, adustus, brachypterus, nigripennis , leucostomoides, posticus, leucostomus, angolensis, latifrons, afer, griaulei , and soror ) were not encountered in this study, but illustrations and notes on the types are provided. T. typographicus is synonymized under xanthoneurus . The type of T. longecaudatus Schulthess was not found. The discrimination of Teleogryllus species is based mainly on song differences and secondarily on morphological differences.
