چکیده

An annotated list of the Cuban fauna of Orthoptera is presented. For each species we include details of valid names, synonyms, type specimens (type category, sex, locality and depository), geographic distribution and bibliographic references. Clarifying notes are added, as well as comments on the species considered doubtful. A total of 140 species included in 62 genera, 31 subfamilies and 12 families make up the known Cuban fauna of Orthoptera. The family Episactidae, the acridid subfamily Ommatolampidinae with 3 unknown genera, 3 unknown genera of Tettigoniidae (Conocephalinae) and 1 undescribed new genus of Tetrigidae (Cladonotinae) are here recorded for the first time from Cuba. Syntypes are designated for Hygronemobius histrionicus Zayas.

The bush katydids have interesting life histories but little is known about species from Southeast Asia. The source of problem may lie in the lack of sampling and revised taxonomic knowledge. The paper reports a species checklist of Phaneropterinae from Singapore. In total, 30 species...

We emphasize those changes that are based on comparison with previou...

Mantophasmatodea: a new insect order?

Klass et al. (1) linked the extinct fossil taxon Raptophasma to newly described species of an extant taxon Mantophasma, hypothesizing that they form a monophyletic group. This result is interesting and uncontroversial. However, I doubt the claim that Raptophasma and Mantophasma represent a new order of Insecta, Mantophasmatodea. I feel that these insects are instead aberrant members of the orde...

Updated list and community structure of Tettigonioidea and Acridoidea (Insecta: Orthoptera) of the Alta Murgia plateau (Italy).

Alta Murgia calcareous plateau (southeast Italy) is thought to represent one of the most important area for Orthoptera in southern Italy, both due to its biogeographical concern and its unique richness in semi-natural dry grasslands. Since the half of the last century, no recent synthesis has been proposed for the Orthopterofauna of this area and a revision of old observations was still needed....
