With unique climate, topography, and vegetation, the Qinghai-Tibet plateau is a special biogeographic region with richness of endemic species. However, the taxonomy and distribution of many insect groups on this plateau are still poorly known. Here, we synthesized a species checklist of subfamily Gomphomastacinae (Orthoptera: Acridoidea: Eumastacidae) for this region, while describing a new species: Myrmeleomastax wideis Qiu, sp. nov.. Images of the new species and the distribution map of all the known species are provided. Type specimens for the new species are deposited in the Zoological and Botanical Museum, Shaanxi Normal University, Xi'an, China (SNNU).
由于独特的气候、地形和植被，青藏高原是一个具有丰富特有物种的特殊生物地理区域。然而，该高原上许多昆虫类群的分类学和分布情况仍知之甚少。在这里，我们综合了该地区的 Gomphomastacinae 亚科（直翅目：Acridoidea：Eumastacidae）的物种清单，并描述了一个新物种：Myrmeleomastax wideis Qiu，sp. nov.。提供了新物种的图片和所有已知物种的分布图。新物种的模式标本存放在中国西安陕西师范大学生物学和植物学博物馆（SNNU）。
