A chance find of a dead mole cricket is proved to be a new species, Gryllotalpa choui, sp. nov., from Yunnan, China. This species, described in the present paper, can be distinguished from all other mole crickets mainly by short abdomen (pronotum longer than half length of abdomen), tegmen nearly round when flattened, large proportional size proportion of the harp, c1 and c2, very short apical field as well as longitudinal veins in this field, vestigial hind wings and a foot-shaped ectophallus.
