Abstract

A new species of Grylloblatta from the Coast Mountains of British Columbia and two new subspecies of Grylloblatta campodeiformis Walker from northern British Columbia are described and figured. The distribution of the species groups from the Rocky Mountain and Coast–Cascade Cordillera are indicated. An interpretation of the present distribution as a result of late Pleistocene and Holocene geological and climatic events is presented.
