The new species Dociostaurus (Kazakia) icconium Sirin & Mol sp. n. (Orthoptera, Acrididae, Gomphocerinae) is described on the basis of morphology and male calling song. The congeneric partner of new species is Dociostaurus (Stauronotulus) cappadocicus (Azam, 1913) whose song description is done for the first time in this study. The species Dociostaurus (Kazakia) brevicollis (Eversmann, 1848) is...

The left and right carotid bifurcations were located at levels corresponding to the second and fourth thoracic vertebrae, respectively. A possible association between low carotid bifurcation and the Klippel-Feil anomaly is suggested.
