Ornebius

Ornebius is a genus of crickets in the family Mogoplistidae and the tribe Arachnocephalini, erected by Félix Édouard Guérin-Méneville in 1844. Species may be called "common scaled crickets" and have widespread records of distribution, which are discontinuous (and probably incomplete); they include: Africa, Asia, Australia, islands in the Indian and Pacific Oceans, and South America.

== Description == Ornebius (at least the Australian species) are >7.5 mm in length. The tegmen posterior margin has either a continuous black or brown band or three darkened areas. The tibiae of the fore and mid legs are banded. The genital processes are brown to pale brown or whitish. In males, the last abdominal segment is not black between the cerci, and the front of the mirror is not hidden beneath the pronotum.
