The study of crickets, katydids, grasshoppers, and related insects requires determining which organisms belong to which species. The discipline of defining biological species and naming them is called taxonomy. Species names are fundamental for categorizing these units of biodiversity and are the basis of most other biological disciplines.

The study of crickets, katydids, grasshoppers, and related insects requires determining which organisms belong to which species. The discipline of defining biological species and naming them is called taxonomy. Species names are fundamental for categorizing these units of biodiversity and are the basis of most other biological disciplines. Knowing the name of a species unlocks everything that has been learned about its biology, distribution, and relevance to scientists. Thus, the primary mission of the Orthoptera Species File (OSF) is to provide a freely accessible and constantly updated taxonomic database of the world’s Orthoptera, ensuring that accurate information is readily available to researchers around the globe.
