The orthopteroids of the Caribbean island of Bonaire are poorly studied and only six species of Orthoptera, one species of Dermaptera and four species of Blattodea have been reported in literature. During a survey in 2022-2023 we found respectively 23, two and seven species, raising the number of species known to occur on Bonaire from 11 to 32. Several of these could not yet be identified to the species level and it is likely that some pertain to undescribed species.
