Although Giuliano this species is not included in any threat category by Hochkirch et al. (2016), S. nigromaculatus is considered threatened in Switzerland due to both intensive meadows management and land abandonment (Baur et al. 2006).Published as part of Giuliano, Davide, 2022, Orthopteran diversity and distribution in the Monviso Natural Park (Western Italian Alps) (Orthoptera), pp. 45-64 in Fragmenta entomologica 54 (1) on pages 53-54, DOI: 10.13133/2284-4880/536, http://zenodo.org/record/814814
