Michèle Lemonnier–Darcemont and Christian Darcemont

Abstract

Nine Orthoptera (Caelifera) species have been selected as bio-indicators applicable to the republic of North Macedonia. These species have been chosen to cover a wide range of biotopes and altitudes; six of them indicate par their presence a good quality of the environment, and three of them indicate by their overabundance a degradation of the environment. The species are described with their key information to use them as bio-indicators.
