Orthoptera Species Online

Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR

The Orthoptera Species File (OSF) is a taxonomic database of the world's orthopteroid insects.

Description

It contains full synonymic and taxonomic information for over 25,000 species and genera (all taxa described prior to 1998) of the Tettigonioidea (katydids and haglids), Grylloidea (crickets), Acridomorpha (locusts and grasshoppers: Acridoidea + Eumastacoidea + Trigonopterygoidea + Pneumoroidea + Pamphagoidea), Tetrigoidea (pygmy grasshoppers), and Tridactyloidea (sand crickets), as well as images and sounds for many species.

A database for the Gryllacridoidea will become available in the future. This site also includes a searchable database of entomologists working on the Orthoptera. We hope that this site will ultimately become a global database of information on the Orthoptera and related orders.

We invite all scientists to contribute relevant and related information to the database, such as images and recordings of species, data on distribution, ecology, and behavior. We also would like to incorporate as well gene sequences and other data pertinent to studies on systematics of the group. Although at this stage the database is restricted to the taxonomy, soon it will include fields containing other data.

Information was obtained from osf2.orthoptera.org/HomePage.aspx and related pages.
