Number: 402, Pages: 1 - 36

A total of 30 species belonging to the family Acrididae (the tribe Gomphocerini from the subfamily Gomphocerinae, and the subfamily Locustinae = Oedipodinae), are known as occurring in Tuva. Two taxa are recorded from the region for the first time, namely Chorthippus dorsatus orientalis Bey-Bienko and Sphingonotus nebulosus (Fischer de Waldheim). At least 6 species and a subspecies are known from the adjacent areas and listed as probably occurring in the region. Distribution patterns and taxonomic composition of Orthoptera fauna of Tuva are briefly discussed.
