Gomphocerinae

update: thanks to the expert Florin from orthoptera.ch he helped me with the identification where possible.

(I made this post for the experts from orthoptera.ch to help me identify the grasshoppers I photographed. That’s why the text is in German.)

Danke für die Hilfe! Alle Fotos wurden Ende August/Anfang September im Tessin gemacht.

deutlich einwärts gebogene Halsschild-Seitenkiele ohne weisses Flügelfeld:

Chorthippus sp. – female:

Chorthippus sp. (if male Chorthippus mollis ignifer – Verkannter Grashüpfer or  Chorthippus brunneus – Brauner Grashüpfer):

Male Common field grasshopper (Chorthippus brunneus – Brauner Grashüpfer, Männchen):
slender long wings and coloring are typical. Schmale lange Flügel sowie die Färbung sind typisch:

Most probably a female Common field grasshopper:

Most probably a Woodland Grasshopper (Omocestus rufipes – Buntbäuchiger Grashüpfer).

Chorthippus sp. (maybe a female from the Chorthippus biguttuls group)

Very difficult to identify without seeing the wings.

Also a female from the Chorthippus biguttulus group:

Two unsure Chorthippus brunneus grasshoppers:

female Mecostethus parapleurus – Weibliche Lauchschrecke:

Chorthippus sp. female (maybe Chorthippus mollis ignifer – evtl. Verkannter Grashüpfer):

Maybe male and female Common fiele grasshopper (evtl. Männchen und Weibchen des Braunen Grashüpfers):
