Neduba carinata is a shield-backed katydid[3] known only from Fremont Peak in San Benito County, California.[4] This name has often been used to describe katydids across a broad portion of the western United States,[4][5] but most of its subspecies have been elevated to species level, and as currently conceived it only applies to a population on Fremont Peak with a pronotum slightly longer and narrower than the similar N. diabloica.[4]
