Abstract :The Orthoptera and Mantodea fauna of Kazdağı National Park insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Balıkesir); were investigated. Field studies were conducted between 2004 and 2005. During this study, 34 species of Orthoptera insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(16 Tettigoniidae, 1 Oecanthidae, 2 Pamphagidae, 1 Tetrigidae, and 14 Acrididae); and 3 species of Mantodea were investigated. Isophya cania, Poecilimon luschani egrigozi, Anadolua schwarzi, Rhacocleis acutangula insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Tettigoniidae);, Paranocaracris rubripes burri insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Pamphagidae);, and one recently described species, Chorthippus insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Glyptobothrus); kazdaghensis insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Acrididae);, are endemic taxa. Metrioptera insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Broughtonia); arnoldi,, known from the Balkan fauna until now, is a new record for Turkish fauna. The calling songs of Metrioptera arnoldi, Rhacocleis acutangula, Anadolua schwarzi, Isophya cania, and Poecilimon luschani are described here for the first time. The recordings of the some species are also given along with habitat observations and altitudinal distribution. From a zoogeographical perspective, Kazdağı holds both Balkan fauna elements as well as those typical of Mediterranean-Anatolian fauna.
