Abstract
Se ha elaborado un listado preliminar de mántidos, blatodeos y ortópteros de la región de Piura en Perú a partir de colectas de especímenes y registros en la bibliografía. En total se han reportado 32 especies de 15 familias, de las cuales cuatro especies pertenecen a Mantodea, cinco especies a Blattodea y 23 especies a Orthoptera. Se registra por primera vez para Perú a Chromacris psittacus psittacus (Gerstaecker, 1873). Se presentan los primeros registros de localidades precisas para el país de Thrasyderes leprosus Bolívar, 1881, mientras que Liturgusa maya Saussure & Zehntner, 1894 es nuevo registro para la región Piura. En el caso de Musonia margharethae (Battiston & Picciau, 2008), Pseudovates peruviana (Rehn, 1911) y Jivarus pictifrons Ronderos, 1979 amplían sus localizaciones dentro de la región. El 75 % de las especies reportadas se debieron a colectas y el 25 % a registros en la bibliografía. Todas las especies registradas se presentan a modo de listado faunístico comentado, incluyendo para cada una datos de colecta así como su distribución por provincia y paisaje ecológico.

Abstract
In response to predation pressure, some insects have developed spectacular plant mimicry strategies (homomorphy), involving important changes in their morphology. The fossil record of plant mimicry provides clues to the importance of predation pressure in the deep past. Surprisingly, to date, the oldest confirmed records of insect leaf mimicry are Mesozoic. Here we document a crucial step in the story of adaptive responses to predation by describing a leaf-mimicking katydid from the Middle Permian. Our morphometric analysis demonstrates that leaf-mimicking wings of katydids can be morphologically characterized in a non-arbitrary manner and shows that the new genus and species Permotettigonia gallica developed a mimicking pattern of forewings very similar to those of the modern leaf-like katydids. Our finding suggests that predation pressure was already high enough during the Permian to favour investment in leaf mimicry. Many insects mimic plants in order to avoid detection by predators. Here, Garrouste and colleagues describe a katydid fossil that extends the record of leaf mimicry to the Middle Permian, more than 100 million years earlier than previously known fossil specimens of plant mimicry.
