The Distribution of the Periodical Cicada in 

 New Jersey (Hem., Horn.). 



By HARRY B. WEISS, New Brunswick, N. J. 



(Plate XIX.) 



The present information concerning the distribution of the 

 several broods of Tibicen septendccim in New Jersey has been 

 obtained from Bull. 71, U. S. Bur. Ent., by C. L. Marlatt and 

 the reports of the entomologist of the N. J. Agric. Exp. Sta., 

 from 1889 to 1915. Since the 1902 report of the entomologist 

 of the N. J. Agric. Exp. Sta. by J. B. Smith, in which there 

 appears a map showing the distribution of broods II, VI, X 

 and XIV, no attempt has been made to bring all of the New 

 Jersey records together in one paper or to map the distribution 

 of each brood separately. 



From Marlatt's numbering and distribution of the broods 

 in the United States, it appears that six are present in 

 Jersey, these being IT, VT, VI IT, X, XIV and XV. Broods
