Podismini is a tribe of "spur-throated grasshoppers" in the family Acrididae. This tribe is unlike others in the subfamily Melanoplinae in that a substantial number of genera occur outside the Americas (but there are about 12 in N. America[1]).

gollark: Military service is *no* guarantee of intelligence.
gollark: Oh, don't worry, the automated memetic reifiers will reexist the Moon based on people's mental picture of it.
gollark: There may be *minor* meteor impacts near HTech due to acceleration stresses.
gollark: Nothing to worry about, the emergency lunar reactionless drives would have allowed it to maintain a useful/safe orbit.
gollark: Ah, it's fine, that would have activated the lunar nuclear defense grid.
