Saginae
The Saginae, commonly known as the predatory katydids or predatory bush-crickets, is a Family (biology), subfamily of the Family (biology), family Tettigoniidae (the Tettigoniidae, bush-crickets or katydids). They are mostly found in Europe, west and central Asia and southern Africa. The Saginae are specialist carnivores, which is unusual among the Orthoptera. Their specialist carnivory and appropriately adapted digestive tracts even were regarded as unique in the Order (biology), order Orthoptera, but at least some members of two other subfamilies, the Austrosaginae and Listroscelidinae are partly or completely predatory as well, and until recently those subfamilies were included in the Saginae.

Saga Pedo
''Saga pedo'' is a species of bush cricket, spread throughout the European part of the Mediterranean, and Asia as far east as China. It is a wingless bush cricket, with the body size of up to , which makes it one of the largest European insects and one of the world's largest Orthoptera (grasshoppers, crickets and alike). Colloquially known as the predatory bush cricket, or the spiked magician (due to the "enchanting" manner in which it waves its forelimbs as it approaches its prey), it is uncommon among its kind due to its carnivorous lifestyle, most often preying on smaller insects, with a known tendency towards cannibalism as well. For this purpose, it has strong fore and mid legs, equipped with sharp spines. When these animals are hunting, they move about, catching their prey by suddenly leaping on them and grabbing them with their legs. Their prey is usually killed by biting into the throat, and eating is done at capture. ''Saga pedo'' is active at dusk and during nighttime, w ...
