Oecanthus mhatreae, commonly known as the Otomí tree cricket,[1] is a species of tree cricket in the family Oecanthidae. It is found in Querétaro, Mexico.[2] Its common name comes from the indigenous Otomi people who are native to the Mexican Plateau region, and its scientific name was given in honour of Natasha Mhatre, a noted Indian Biologist and Professor at University of Western Ontario in Canada.[2]
