PINE WOODS. 



A great portion of the region is covered by pine woods, 

 Pinus caribaea. This area is very open, the ground is ex- 

 tremely rough, being composed in most places of oolitic lime- 

 stone and is carpeted with a large variety of low vegetation 

 in which the wire grass and saw palmetto are everywhere 

 found. Considerably larger series of Orthoptera could be 

 taken in these woods during March than elsewhere, but as the 

 majority of the species were already well known to us, but 

 little time was given on this trip to this area. A number of 

 interesting captures were, however, made. 



SALT MARSHES AND EVERGLADES. 



These two areas were most unproductive, almost all of the 

 abundant Tettigoniidae found in the Fall not being yet ap- 

 parent, even as tiny immature individuals. 



SEA BEACHES. 



But one species of Acridid is found on the sand beaches, 

 but back of these in the halophytic vegetation, Ipomaea pes- 

 caprae, Canavalia lineata and other plants, a number of spe- 

 cies were encountered. Individuals of several of these were 

 of interest in being of decidedly larger average size than ma- 

 terial from inland situations. 



DERMAPTERA. 

 Anisolabis annulipes (Lucas). Brickell's Hammock, Miami, III, 



4, 1915, (H.), 1 9. 

 Labidura bidens (Olivier). A crushed individual of this species was 



seen on the sidewalk at Miami. 

 Prolabia unidentata (Beauvois). Southside, Miami, III, 6, 1915, 



(H.), 4 9- 



This species was found abundant under the dried bark of 

 all of the logs of Pinus caribaea examined. 



ORTHOPTERA. 



BLATTIDAE. 



Ischnoptera deropeltiformis (Brunner). Brickell's Hammock, 

 Miami, III, 4 to 15, 1915, (H.; trapped in molasses jar), 2 

 juv. $. 

 Blattella germanica (Linnaeus). Common in habitations at Miami.
