1. Phrynotettix verruculatus, Uhler. 



Phrynotettix verruculata (Uhler), Glover, Illustr. N. Am. Ent., Orthopt. t. 6. fig. 25 (1872) » 

 Haldemanetla verruculata, Scudd. & Ckll. Proc. Dav. Acad. Sci. ix. p. 39 (1902) \ 

 Phrynotettix tshivavensis, Rehn, Proc. Acad. Nat. Sci. Philad. 1902, p. 596 (in part.) 3 . 



Hab. Noetii America, Pecos River, Texas \ Taos Valley, New Mexico, and Phoenix, 

 Arizona {coll. L. Bruner). — Mexico, San Bias ( Woodruff). 



The synoptic table given above indicates quite clearly the differences between the 

 various species as here recognized. 



2. Phrynotettix tschivavensis, Hald. (Haldemanella tchivavensis, Tab. II. 



fig. 1, 6 .) 



Ephippigera tcivavensis, Hald. in Stansbury's Expl. and Surv. Great Salt Lake, Ins. p. 371, t. 10.

 Haldmanella tschivavensis, Sauss. Addit. Prodr. CEdip. p. 153 (1888) \ 

 Haldemanella tschivavensis, Scudd. Cat. Orthopt. U.S. p. 44 (1900) (in part.) 4 . 



Hab. North America, Silver City, New Mexico (II. Marsh), and Needles, California 

 (H. F. Wickham, coll. L. Bruner). — Mexico \ Colonia Garcia, Chihuahua (C. //. T. 

 Townsend, coll. L. Bruner). 



Possibly some of the other references to insects of this group should be included in 

 the above synonymy. The present species is the smallest of the described forms. 



[3. Phrynotettix taosanus, Eehn. 



Phrynotettix taosanus, Eehn, Proc. Acad. Nat. Sci. Philad. 1902, pp. 595, 597, 598 l . 

 Hab. North America, Taos Valley, New Mexico l ( U.S. Nat. Mus.). 



This species is not known to the present writer. It may also be an insect of 

 sufficiently wide distribution to bring it into Mexican territory.] 



4. Phrynotettix magnus, Thomas. 



Eremobia magna, Thomas, Rep. U.S. Geol. Surv. W. 100th Merid. v. p. 886, t. 43. fig. 5 



(1875) \ 

 Haldmanella tschivavensis, Sauss. Addit. Prodr. (Edip. p. 153 (1888) (in part.) 2 . 

 Haldemanella tschivavensis, Scudd. Cat. Orthopt. U.S. p. 44 (1900) (in part.) 3 . 

 Phrynotettix tshivavensis, Rehn, Proc. Acad. Nat. Sci. Philad. 1902, pp. 596, 597 (in part.) *. 



Hab. North America, Southern Arizona 1 . — Mexico, Sonora (coll. U.S. Wat. Mus.). 



The only specimen of what is supposed to be the species described by Thomas 

 at hand is a female that has been preserved in spirits and subsequently pinned. It 

 simply bears the label " Sonora, Mexico." It readily separates from its nearest ally, 

 P. verruculatus, by the characters given in the synoptic table.
