''Scapteriscus'' is a genus of insects in the family Gryllotalpidae, the mole crickets. Members of the genus are called two-clawed mole crickets.〔(Genus ''Scapteriscus''. ) In: Walker, T. J. ''Singing Insects of North America''. Entomology and Nematology. University of Florida, IFAS.〕 They are native to South America.〔Parkman, J. P. and J. H. Frank. (1992). (Infection of sound-trapped mole crickets, ''Scapteriscus'' spp., by ''Steinernema scapterisci''. ) ''Florida Entomologist'' 75(1) 163-65.〕 Some species have arrived in other regions (by flight or as contaminants of ship ballast or cargoes), including parts of North America, where some have become invasive and have become established as pests.〔 ==Description== These are medium-sized or large mole crickets characterized by the structures on their forelegs: two sharp claws and a blade-like process with a sharp flange or tooth. Other mole crickets have three or four claws.〔Rodríguez, F. and S. Heads. (2012). (New mole crickets of the genus ''Scapteriscus'' Scudder from Colombia (Orthoptera: Gryllotalpidae; Scapteriscinae). ) ''Zootaxa'' 3282, 61–68.〕 Like other mole crickets, these burrow in the ground and the males produce calls with their tegmina.〔Nickle, D. A. (2003). (A revision of the mole cricket genus ''Scapteriscus'' with the description of a morphologically similar new genus (Orthoptera: Gryllotalpidae: Scapteriscinae). ) ''Transactions of the American Entomological Society'' 129(3–4) 411–485.〕
