- Abstract
Acheta domesticus (L., 1758) is a synanthropic and anthropophilous species considered locally rare and in progressive rarefaction for the improved hygienic conditions of the houses and for competition with Gryllomorpha dalmatina dalmatina (Ocskay, 1832). Until 2009, in the literature A. domesticus was known only for three localities in the Piedmont region. Following investigations in urban environments (houses) the presence of the species has been ascertained in nine further sites in the provinces of Cuneo and Turin. The absence of data is therefore probably related not so much to the rarefaction of the species, as instead to: a) progressive reduction of the interest applied after the second post-war period, b) scarce collecting interest, and c) difficulty in accessing the environments in which it is confined (private houses).
