Abstract: 19 species of earwigs belonging to 10 genera, 5 families were recorded basing on the specimens of earwigs from Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region deposited in the Hebei University Museum. Catalogue, distributions and collecting information were provided, and a key to species of earwigs was appended. A preliminary study on the relations of earwigs’ geographical distribution and altitude from this region was given. The results showed the species of Anisolabididae mainly distributed in low altitude area and the species of Forficulidae mainly distributed in high altitude area, and a verification basing on modeling (Maxent) was implemented by using distribution records of Forficulidae.

Key words: earwigs, geographical distribution, altitude, Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region
