The following alphabetical index of the valid specific names of the pterygot insects of Old World is an initiative one, recorded in the Info-system of the Cesa so far. The scientific names are given below with the authors, usually with the date of publications, and their families. The validity of the names are usually confirmed here from the taxonomical and nomenclatural standpoints. The synonyms are omitted here. The present list comprises totally 2977 species of the recorded insects of the Old World within Info-system of the Cesa (Lepidoptera excluded). Total number of the species recorded so far is 5968 (together with Turkey) (except Lepidoptera). Currently they belong to 1506 genera of 356 family group taxa recorded. Next and more comprehensive reports concerning this ongoing Project will be published in this serial at irregular intervals. Fig. 1 – Zabalius aridus (Tettigoniidae, Pseudophyllinae).
