Description

Alinjarria elongata, commonly known as the territory imitator, is a species of bush-cricket from tropical northern Australia. The common name is derived from the fact that the species was at first thought to be a member of the genus Hemisaga until it was realised that its unique characteristics warranted placing it in a new genus.
