The two arthropodan species Conocephalus fuscus (Fabricius, 1793) and Humbertiella ceylonica (Saussure, 1869) were first observed and documented in the Anna University Campus in Chennai, Tamil Nadu. Species were identified based on photographs. There have been prior reports of these two species in two distinct areas of the nation. Humbertiella ceylonica, a mantodean species, was discovered in India, whereas Conocephalus fuscus an orthopteran species was discovered in many countries and recently in Pakistan (Sadiq et al., 2017). Now both species were documented in Anna University, Chennai, Tamil Nadu.
