Abstract


Algeria is divided in to four regions, the west, the center, the east and the south. Each one of these regions includes a certain number of stations where orthopterologic inventories are made. The different data concerning the censuses of the Orthoptera found in the different regions were assembled. The order Orthoptera is divided in two sub-orders among which are the Ensifera and Caelifera which is the most important, and includes 110 species divided into 3 families, namely the Acrididae, the Pamphagidae, and the Pyrgomorphidae. The first family is very diversified, since it includes as many as 84 species. The sub-order Ensifera comprises 27 species (24 Tettigoniidae and 3 Gryllotalpidae), approximately as many as the two Caelifera families Pamphagidae and Pyrgomorphidae. First, the Orthopteran species were surveyed in each of the four regions. The cental region was the richest, with 80 species, whereas the number goes down to half in the south.
