Schizodactylidae is a familyoforthopteran insects found in Asia and southern Africa, known as dune cricketsorsplay-footed crickets. They are usually found in desert and sandy areas. Species are predatory, including Schizodactylus inexspectatus.[2] T. B. Fletcher notes that one captive individual did not feed on any vegetable matter.[3] Fossils are known since the Early Cretaceous.[4]
