Orthoptera in Nova Scotia are not generally considered to be economic pests. However the records show that many infestations of economic proportions have occurred in the province. The present study was not initiated because of the economic status of the group but rather because of the interesting variation encountered in the relatively small number of species representing this Order. This paper includes a brief resume of the classification of the Order Orthoptera and the Orthoptera found in Nova Scotia, including keys, illustrations, descriptions, range, habits, habitat and common synonyms.
