With the increasing awareness of the need for Orthoptera conservation, greater efforts must be gathered to implement specific monitoring schemes. Despite recent surveys, little is known about Portuguese Orthoptera populations. This study was performed in 2014 and 2015 mainly in Castro Verde Special Protection Area (SPA), southern Portugal, and is the first Orthoptera inventory conducted in the area. A total of 35 Orthoptera species was recorded, with two new species reported for Portugal. We provide species' habitat occurrences within the protected area and use information on the conservation status and the Iberian distribution of each documented species to discuss the importance of Castro Verde SPA for Orthoptera conservation. The data presented here sheds new light on Castro Verde SPA biodiversity and emphasizes the inclusion of this area in the conservation of Orthoptera diversity, particularly in the protection of threatened endemic species.
随着人们对直翅目昆虫保护需求的认识不断提高，必须加大力度实施具体的监测计划。尽管最近进行了调查，但对葡萄牙直翅目昆虫种群的了解仍然很少。本研究于2014年和2015年主要在葡萄牙南部的卡斯特罗韦尔德特别保护区（SPA）进行，是该地区首次进行的直翅目昆虫清查。共记录了35种直翅目昆虫，其中有两种为葡萄牙新记录物种。我们提供了保护区内各物种的栖息地分布情况，并利用每个记录物种的保护状况和伊比利亚分布信息，讨论卡斯特罗韦尔德特别保护区对直翅目昆虫保护的重要性。此处呈现的数据为卡斯特罗韦尔德特别保护区的生物多样性提供了新的线索，并强调将该地区纳入直翅目昆虫多样性保护范围，特别是对受威胁的特有物种的保护。
