Elcanidae are an extinct family of Mesozoic and early Cenozoic orthopterans. Members of the family are distinguished by the presence of spurs on the distal part of the metatibia, unique among orthopterans, these have been suggested to have been used for controlling gliding, swimming aids, or for jumping on water. The group combines characteristics from both major groups of orthopterans, with long antennae and nymphal morphology similar to Ensifera, but with wing venation and adult morphology more similar to Caelifera. Their closest relatives are the extinct family , known from the Early-Late Permian, with which they form the superfamily , whose relationship to Ensifera and Caelifera are unresolved. Elcanids are known from the Late Triassic to Paleocene of Eurasia, North and South America.

  • Elcanidae (лат.) — семейство вымерших насекомых из отряда прямокрылых. Представители известны с верхнего триаса. Самые поздние их находки сделаны в меловом бирманском янтаре. Вместе с вымершим семейством относится к надсемейству , которое занимает промежуточное положение между длинноусыми и короткоусыми прямокрылыми: наличием длинных антенн и хорошо развитого яйцеклада представители напоминают первых, тогда как по жилкованию переднего крыла они ближе ко вторым. На задних голенях несли листовидные выросты (шпоры), которые, возможно, позволяли им прыгать по воде. (ru)

  • Elcanidae é uma família de ortópteros extintos com distribuição estratigráfica do Triássico ao . A extinção destes insetos está possivelmente associada à transição Cretáceo-Paleógeno, o mesmo evento que resultou no desaparecimento de grupos de animais como os dinossauros não avianos e biválvios rudistas. Entretanto, diante da distribuição estratigráfica dos últimos elcanídeos para o Cretáceo médio, e frente à alta resistência dos insetos em eventos de extinções em massa (transições Permiano-Triássico e Triássico-Jurássico), levantam-se questões acerca do real motivo de desaparecimento destes ortópteros. Aproximadamente 95% das famílias de insetos do Cretáceo Superior são as mesmas representadas atualmente, mostrando que os eventos ocorridos no final do Cretáceo não necessariamente seriam d (pt)
