All taxa of Orthoptera known from the latest Eocene deposits of the Isle of Wight are redescribed or discussed, based on the study of their type material. The following new taxa are described: Ontogryllus gen. nov., O. rossi sp. nov. (type species), Achetomorpha gen. nov., A. irregularis sp. nov. (type species), and Proeneopterotrypus gen. nov. The latter genus is here proposed for Pteroplistes danicus Rust, described from the Palaeocene/Eocene of Denmark, as this find is important for understanding the systematic position of the genus Eneopterotrypus Zeuner. Remarks about the taxonomy of the taxa studied, age of these deposits, and ecology are given.
