Polichne parvicauda (Stal) 



1860. Phaneroptera parvicauda Stal, Kongl. Svenska Freg. Eugenie's Resa., 

 Zool., I, p. 320. [ 9 ; Sydney, [New South Wales], Australia.] 



Queensland, Australia, 1 9 . 



Anerota 36 subcarinata (Bolivar) 



1899. Ph [aneroptera] subcarinata Bolivar, Ann. Soc. Ent. France, LXVIII, 

 p. 764. [<?, 9 ; Madura, Southern India.] 



Phuc-Son, Annam, November and December, (from H. Fruh- 



storfer), 1 cf. 



Mount Makiling, Luzon, Philippine Islands, (from C. F. Baker), 



1 9. 



Iligan, Mindanao, Philippine Islands, (from C. F. Baker), 1 cf . 



Labuan, British North Borneo, 1 cf, 1 9 . 



These specimens agree closely with material from southern India 



in the collection of the author. The females from Mount Makiling 



and Obi Island, however, do not show the usual and minute pro- 



notal speckling. 



Anerota furcifera (Stal). 



1874. P[haneroptera] furcifera Stal, Recensio Orth., II, p. 29. [<?, Philip- 

 pine Islands.] 



Baguio, Benguet, Luzon, Philippine Islands, (from C. F. Baker), 



2 9. 



Polillo Island, Luzon, Philippine Islands, (from C. F. Baker), 2 9 . 

 Los Banos, Laguna, Luzon, Philippine Islands, (from C. F. 

 Baker), 3 cf , 1 9. 



Mount Makilung, Luzon, Philippine Islands, (from C. F. Baker), 



2 tf 1 . 



We find no diagnostic difference in tegminal length between this 

 species and A. gracilis (Burmeister). In all of the material before 

 us of these two species, the tegmina fail to reach the apices of the 

 caudal femora by a considerable interval, except in the female of 

 the present species from Baguio. 



Anerota gracilis (Burmeister) 



1838. Ph [aneroptera] gracilis Burmeister, Handb. Ent., II, Abth. II, pt. 1, 

 p. 690. [<?, 9; Java.] 



1839. Phaneroplera brevis Serville, Hist. Nat. Ins., Orth., p. 418. [d\ 9 ; 

 Java.] 



Sandakan, British North Boreno, (from C. F. Baker), 1 cf. 



36 This name has recently been proposed by Caudell, Jour. Washington Acad. 

 Sci., XI, p. 488, (1921). It takes the place of Phaneroplera of recent authors and 

 Gryllus falcatus Poda is designated genotype. That author there fixes the geno- 

 type of Phaneroplera as Locusta curvicauda deGeer, this being the first valid 

 genotypic fixation for that genus. As a result, the genus Phaneroptera now stands 

 as valid for the North American genus recognized as Scudderia by recent authors, 

 Scudderia falling as a synonym of Phaneroptera.
