- This Red List of grasshoppers and crickets for Berlin is the first that treats the whole area of Berlin, since the two preceding lists focused only on the western parts of the formerly divided city. Until now 54 species of grasshoppers and crickets have been recorded in the area. 46 species have been found to be well established in the wild, while eight species were only non breeding accidental immigrants or species whose successful reproduction has only been observed in greenhouses or similar structures. Of the 46 species being well established in the past and/or present 22 must be included in one of the threat categories, indicating that the populations of these species are already endangered. Additionally, seven species belong to the category "Near Threatened". Only 17 of the grasshopper and cricket species of Berlin are not threatened.
