Abstract: 【Objective】The objective of this study is to investigate the ecological relationship between plant community structure and grasshopper community structure in the typical grasslands of Inner Mongolia. 【Method】Canonical analysis, double screening for stepwise regression and redundancy analysis (RDA) were used to analyze the relationship between plant community structure and grasshopper community structure. 【Result】 The biomass loss of Leymus chinensis was negatively correlated with the grasshopper species richness index and positively correlated with the relative abundance of Dasyhippus barbipes in the L. chinensis steppe. The relative abundance of Oedaleus decorus asiaticus was positively correlated with the biomass loss of Stipa krylovii in the S. krylovii steppe and the steppe dominated by S. krylovii with the forb diverse.【Conclusion】In the relationship between plants and grasshoppers,probably the habitat condition consists of structure of plant community can cause more effects on community composition of some grasshoppers than the food plants. The existence of the dominant grasshoppers decided by the dominant plants causes high infestation rate of the dominant plants.
