Kosciuscola is a genus of grasshoppers in the subfamily Oxyinae (tribe Praxibulini). They are found in Australia.
While most grasshoppers are passive or use acoustic signals (chirping) to resolve disputes, Kosciuscola tristis is famous among entomologists for engaging in ubiquitous, escalated physical combat.
