The Euryphyminae are a subfamily of grasshoppers in the family Acrididae, based on the type genus Euryphymus and may be called "agile grasshoppers"; it was erected by Vitaly Michailovitsh Dirsh in 1956.[1] Species have been recorded from parts of sub-Saharan Africa including Madagascar (but the distribution may be incomplete).[2]
