Scaphura is a Neotropical genus of bush crickets in the subfamily Phaneropterinae. Some of the species within Scaphura are Batesian mimics of wasps,[2] for example the type species, Scaphura nigra,[1] is a polymorphic Batesian mimic of wasps of the genus Pepsis and Entypus (Pompilidae) and the potter wasps Polistes (Vespidae).[3] The genus is restricted to South America.[1] Another genus of Neotropical phaneropterine bush crickets, Aganacris, also are Batesian mimics of wasps.[4]
