Remarks.
A few specimens of this species have been recorded from
Yukon
, the
Northwest Territories
and Alaska as
S. lineatum
Scudder, 1863
(
Vickery & Kevan, 1983
). Recently the specimens from Alaska were correctly identified as
S. grossum
(
Haberski
et al.
, 2021
)
. The records of isolated populations of
S. lineatum
from the extremely North
Canada
seem to be result of misidentification and belong to
S. grossum
. In
Beringia
, this Holarctis species has been recorded from Northeast Yakutia, Magadan region, Alaska,
Yukon
, and the
Northwest Territories
. This large and conspicuous grasshopper inhabits wetlands.
