Abstract

Simple Summary

This study explores the diversity and distribution of different grasshopper species across the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau, a region renowned for its rich diversity. Through the compilation and analysis of grasshopper specimens, the literature, and geographic distribution data, we have created a species database that details the diversity and distribution of 390 species. The research highlights that the Tibetan Plateau’s endemic species are predominantly found in the Bayan Har Mountains and the Hengduan Mountains. We also predict changes in suitable habitats for grasshoppers under future climate scenarios, providing insights for pest management in agricultural landscapes and forests, as well as for biodiversity conservation.
