Abstract
Weekly field trips to collect tettigonids were conducted from February 2002
to the spring of 2003. Many specimens were collected from the different parts of
Jordan. Specimens of Tettigoniidae collected previously from Jordan and
preserved in the University of Jordan Insects Museum as well as other Jordanian
collections were also studied. The specimens were found to belong to 25 species
in eight genera and six subfamilies. Keys for the identification of subfamilies,
tribes, genera, subgenera and species recorded in Jordan were constructed and
provided with the necessary illustrations. For each species, the valid name,
synonymy list, distribution in the world, collecting sites and dates in Jordan,
description, color photographs of the entire specimen, were provided. |
