Abstract
Genus of Itara Walker, 1869 (Orthoptera: Gryllidae) includes 10 subgenera and 54 species worldwide. These species are mainly distributed in the Asia-tropical region (e.g., Malay Archipelago, India, Vietnam, and Thailand). In China, one species (Itara minor Chopard, 1925) has long been identified from tropical regions. In this study, three subgenera and eight species of Itara have been identified. Three new species are described (Itara (Itara) basidentatanew species, Itara (Itara) dicrananew species, and Itara (Gryllitara) denudatanew species, and four new distribution records are reported. Descriptions and illustrations for eight species are provided.
