Abstract

SummaryM. Descamps: The Acridoid peopling in a small area of the Colombian Amazonia.89 species of Acridomorpha have been recorded in a very small area (radius: 2,5-3 km) of the amazonian forest. Among these species, 53% appeared to be new to Science, but this rate reaches 71% for the species of the canopy. These insects are distributed in three classes and seventeen ecological types. The influence of the Indians on this climacitic forest is not destructive, and allows the maintenance of non typically forest species. The favourable conditions for these insects are shortly, but successively realised on tiny and distant areas, on which the evolution must always strart again from low level populations. They are never to be found in profusion.
