Habitat:
I found Acanthogryllus acus under stones in a periodically dry barranco ground. I also heard stridulations in adjacing banana plantations where the animals probably live under detritus (Gran Canaria, Tasarte, December 2016).

Remarks:
Acanthogryllus acus occurs in Africa including the Canary Islands (Spain).
