The C-banding patterns in the embryo chromosomes of the grasshopper Podisma pedestris (L.) from the Altai Mts are reported. The additional second C-heterochromatic arms in at least five pairs of autosomes and in the X-chromosome were revealed. The paracentromeric, interstitial, and telomeric C-bands were observed. The studied population of P. pedestris shows some differences in the distribution and amount of the heterochromatin in comparison with European populations.
