Crawford, Gibson and Fosey Cos., Ind., June G July 10, one 

 male, numerous females; the latter sex most common and with 

 ootheca protruding the latter part of June (W. 8. B.}. In Craw- 

 ford Co. they were taken from beneath rocks on the sides and 

 crests of the higher hills, especially in limestone glades where the 

 red cedar abounds. In Florida it has been recorded from Jack- 

 sonville, Ortega, Gulf Hammock, Tallahassee, River Junction, Ma- 

 rianna and De Funiak Springs, March Sept., and probably oc- 

 curs only in the northern third of the State. Ranges from Dela- 

 ware and Maryland west and south to St. Louis, Mo., and Beau- 

 mont, Texas. A single adveutive specimen \vas taken in a house 

 at Wellesley, Mass., by A. P. Morse. 



In the Southern States this roach is usually found beneath the 

 loose bark of pine logs and stumps, or beneath signs attached to 

 pine trees. It is the largest of the species of Parcoblatta whose 

 males are pale brown in color, and is only equalled or exceeded in 

 size by P. pennsylvanica. It was described by me (1003, 183) as 

 Isclmoptera major S. & Z. (1893, 54), which name is a synonym 

 of P. lata, but my description was the first one of the female. 

 /. liyalina Sc.udder (18(19, 307) and /. couloniaua (R. & H., 1910, 

 433) nee Saussure (1862) are also synonyms.
