28 THE CANADIAN ENTOMOLOGIST. 



SOME INDIANA ACRIDID.E.— II. 



BY W. S. BLATCHLEY, TERRE HAUTE, INDIANA. 



Since my first paper on " Indiana Acrididse," which was pubHshed in 

 the Entomologist for April and May, 1891, was prepared, six additional 

 species have been taken in Vigo County. Of these, one is new to science ; 

 a second has been known in the United States only from Florida and 

 North Carolina ; of a third, but one specimen, a female, has hitherto 

 been recorded, and from it Dr. Thomas described the species ; while a 

 fourth has not before been taken west of New Jersey. With the habits 

 and local distribution, as far as noted, of these six species, together with 

 the description of three of them, the present paper deals.

 paper to which the synonymy refers : —

 On October nth, and again on the 24th, a number of specimens of 

 this slender-bodied, graceful species were taken from the tall sedges and 

 rushes which grew near the margin of a large pond in the river bottom of 

 the southern part of Vigo Co. Its range has heretofore been supposed 

 to be a strictly southern one, and Thomas, in the note, loc. cit., states
