Bryophyma debilis, a poorly known grasshopper from the wooded savanna of West Africa, was reared for the first time under laboratory conditions. Morphological descriptions of adults and nymphs were made previously. We describe some behavioral traits (aggressiveness, stridulation, egg-laying), and record data on nymphal development and reproductive biology.
