The Copiphorini are a tribe of bush crickets or katydids in the family Tettigoniidae.

[1] Like some other members of Conocephalinae, they are known as coneheads, grasshopper-like insects with an extended, cone-shaped projection on their heads that juts forward in front of the base of the antennae.

[2] Species in the tribe Copiphorini vary in length from about 24 to 74 mm (1 to 3 in).

Most species have loud songs which enable them to be identified.

The call is made in most instances by the two fore wings rubbing together.
