Montezuma's Grasshopper is the common name of Syrbula montezuma.

Specifically, this insect is native to Mexico and to the southwestern United States of America. It is particularly the Mexican connection that inspires this grasshopper's common name. Moctezuma II (1466-1520) ruled the Aztec Empire at the time of the landing of the Spaniards in what is now Mexico City, Mexico. His name may be spelled in a number of ways, one of which is "Montezuma" in English.
