SUBFAMILY I. PSEUDOMOPINJE. 8] 



genus in which one or more of the dorsal abdominal segments of 

 the male are not modified and the tegmina of the female are 

 smaller and more widely separated than in any of the others. The 

 86 specimens recorded by Hebard were taken from 33 different 

 localities within the range above mentioned between April 27 and 

 July 21. a few at light, or trapped in molasses jars, but the hab- 

 itat of most not mentioned. Brimley (1908, 10) states that it 

 and other native roaches are all found near Raleigh N. Car., 

 "under the thick covering of pine straw lying on the ground in 

 pine woods." In the western part of its range it becomes much 

 paler, in some specimens the head only being dark. The Kakerlac 

 sclnrffcfl Rehn (1904g, 72) is a synonym.

Steubeu, Marion, Lawrence and Crawford counties. Indiana, 

 May 2G Aug. 7 (W. 8. B.). The females were first described by 

 me as Isclinoptcra intncata sp. nov. (1903, 180). Those from 

 Crawford Co. were found beneath cover on the slopes of high 

 wooded hills, those from Steuben Co. beneath chunks near the 

 border of a lake, two of the females (Aug. 7) with ootheca pro- 

 truding. In Florida P. uJiJcriana is known only from Pablo 

 Beach, Aug. 11 (Helxird, 1917a, 114). It ranges from Massadm-
