Grylloblattodea is known as the only "living fossil" of insects (Crampton, 1926;Walker, 1937), retaining primitive features of Orthoptera along with features of Plecoptera, Embiodea, and Thysanura (Wang, 1999). As the only relict order of Insecta, Grylloblattodea is associated with the extinct Protoblattoidea and may be more closely related to Protorthoptera (Bai et al., 2010;Rasnitsyn, 2002). According to the studies on the distribution of fossil and extant families, Grylloblattodea are intermediates in the course of evolution from winged to wingless phenotypes and from ubiquitous to restricted distributions, and they represent a
