PENTAGRAM MA Van D. 



P. vittatifrons Uhl. "New Jersey" (Uhl); Staten Island VIII, 23, on salt 

 meadow (Ds). 



Family CERCOPIDyE. 



These are the "frog-hoppers" or "spittle-insects," so called because of 

 the shape of the adults, which is broad and squat, the leaping power 

 being also well developed, and because the larvae live in little masses of 

 white froth resembling spittle. In this group the thorax is without ab- 

 normal processes and is not produced back over the abdomen. 



While "frog-spittle" is not uncommon on low meadows, shrubs and 

 bogs, none of the species are injurious to cultivated plants in New Jersey.
