Sigaus campestris is a species of short-horned grasshopper in the family Acrididae. It is found in South Island of New Zealand.[1][2] This species is fairly widespread in Canterbury and Otago, found from 400 to 1,200 m above sea level.[3] Sigaus campestris is a flightless species and expected to lose 45 - 67% of its current range due to climate change.[4] Sigaus campestris is sister to the endangered species Sigaus minutus.[5]
