Borneogryllacris is a genus of Asian orthopterans, sometimes known as 'leaf-folding crickets', in the subfamily Hyperbaeninae and tribe Capnogryllacridini, erected by Heinrich Hugo Karny in 1937.[1] As its name suggests, species were originally recorded from Borneo, with subsequent finds in Peninsular Malaysia and Indochina.[2]
