It contains a lot of review of literatures along with their proper references for researcher and scientist related to Orthoptera; techniques of grasshoppers collection, preservation and their identification; several basic taxonomical morphometric characters, certain line drawings and photographs of grasshoppers are also provided to easy going of this book. A very good and sequential procedure for preparing entomological materials for taxonomical purposes are presented.
