AUTHORITIES, 



Tlie foUowiDg list is confined almost exclusively to those authorities which 

 contain descriptions of the genera and species of Acrididce belonging to the 

 North American fauna, or in. which some important information will be found 

 in regard thereto. Some works, as will be seen, are included which are 

 wholly devoted to exotic species; but where such are named it is because 

 they contain original generic descriptions, and are therefore necessary to be 

 examined in order to obtain a full history of the North American AcrididcB. 

 The full titles, when not given here, will generally be found in the introduc- 

 tory part of Mr. Scudder's Catalogue of the Orthoptera :
