The entire series was taken in the undergrowth of the pine woods. 



Nemobius cubensis Sauss. 



Homestead, Fla., March 17-19, 1910; (macropterous) 3 d\ 3 9 ; 

 (brachypterous) 4 d\ 12 9 ; In. 



These specimens agree with the authors' conception of the species. 

 Saussure's description, although not fully adequate, is much more 

 satisfactory than many later descriptions of species of Nemobius. 

 The preponderance of brachypterous individuals in the present 

 series is probably due to the fact that these specimens were taken in 

 their natural environment and not attracted to light; in the latter 

 case individuals of this genus are almost always found to be macrop- 

 terous. Though the presence or absence of wings gives individuals 

 of this species a very different general appearance, close examination 

 fails to show the least difference in any other respect. 



All of the specimens here treated were taken in the high grass 

 growing on the everglades. 



Nemobius carolinus Sc. 



Homestead, Fla., March 17-19, 1910; 1 9 . 



The single specimen referred to this species was taken with the 

 series of N. cubensis; it is brachypterous and exactly agrees in size 

 and coloration with specimens of that form of N. cubensis, though 

 easily separated by all the more important though less conspicuous 

 characters.
