Jerusalem crickets (or potato bugs) are a group of large, flightless insects in the genera Ammopelmatus and Stenopelmatus, together comprising the tribe Stenopelmatini. The former genus is native to the Western United States and parts of Mexico, while the latter genus is from Central America. Despite their common names, these insects are neither true crickets (which belong to the family Gryllidae), nor are they native to Jerusalem.
