Abstract

The original material of the Tasmanian grasshopper described as Calliptamus baiulus by Erichson in 1842 has been rediscovered. A new genus Schayera, related to the mainland Australian genera Azelota and Perunga, is erected to accommodate it. The species has apparently never been collected again and the male is unknown. The genus and species are described and figured.
