Abstract

Henri de Saussure described 82 species currently placed in the superfamilies Rhaphidophoroidea, Stenopelmatoidea and Tettigonoidea. The names are listed alphabetically, and the location of the type material (if known) and the current nomenclatural combination are given. When there is primary type material in the Museum d'histoire naturelle de Geneve (MHNG), the sex, verbatim label data and condition of the specimens is given, along with their location within the collection.
