Suwannee Creek, VIII, 28, 1911, type of Bactromantis virga Scudder, 



• (R. & H.), 1 juv. 9 . [Scudder Cln.]. 



It is surprising to find the unique type of Scudder's Bactromantis 

 virga merely a large immature individual of the present species and 

 of the usual type of coloration for its sex. There is no question 

 but that the specimen is Scudder's type, for it bears his label and 

 agrees perfectly with his description in size and coloration. The 

 glaring misstatement in the original description, "apterous female." 

 can only be attributed to carelessness involving the consequent 

 erection of another synonym. The specimen is indeed "apterous," 

 but the wing pads may be seen readily with the naked eye and the 

 most casual examination of the apex of the abdomen shows that it 

 is not a female. As virga is the type by monotypy of the genus 

 Bactromantis, that genus falls in the synonymy under Stagmomantis. 



In the above series we find the majority of immature males dark 

 in general coloration, but having the median and caudal limbs green, 

 only two immature examples of this sex are wholly green or greenish. 

 All of the immature females are of this latter phase of coloration. 



Gonatista grisea (Fabricius).

Savannah, Georgia, (A. Oemler), 19, McDonald, Fla., IX, 6, 1905, (C. H. 



[U. S. N. M.]. Baker), 1 juv. 9, [U. S. N. M.]. 



The specimen from McDonald was taken on a long-leaf pine. 

 The present species is found in moderate numbers throughout the 

 subtropical region of southern Florida and to a much less degree in 

 the Sabalian or Basic Austral zone of the southeastern United States; 

 records to the north of the limits of this zone are surely those of indi- 

 viduals accidentally introduced.
