Melanoplus es un género de saltamontes perteneciente a la familia Acrididae.[1]​

Son saltamontes desde pequeños hasta relativamente grandes. De color liso, castaño, grisáceo o amarillento. Muchas especies son muy similares en apariencia y difíciles de diferenciar. Se alimentan preferentemente de plantas dicotiledóneas, pero también de algunas monocotiledóneas herbáceas. La mayoría pasan el invierno como huevos.[2]​

Están distribuidos ampliamente en Eurasia y Norteamérica, la mayoría, 239 especies en Norteamérica. Algunas especies son «langostas migratorias») en América del Norte.[3]​
