290 THE CANADIAN ENTOMOLOGIcT. 



Anabrus, Hald. — Siviilis. Scudd., which is here listed as distinct, is 

 a synonym of A. simplex. 



Cyphoderris, Uhl. — This genus is wrongly located in the Declicin^e. 

 It is a genus in the Stenopelmatinte. 



Cacopteris, Scudd. — As shown in my revision of the. Decticinge, tliis 

 is a synonym of Idiostatus, Pict. 



Tropizaspis, Scudd. — This genus falls, as it is the same as Walker's 

 earlier described Nednba, and the type, stehiiiachneri, equals Neduba 

 ^arinaia. 



Chelidoptera, Wesm. — This is preoccupied in birds, as staled on 

 p. 403 of my recent paper on Decticinas. 



Idionotus, Scudd. — This genus is wrongly referred to the synonym 

 under Neduba, Walk. 



Camptonotus, Uhl. — For our United States species of this genus Mr. 

 Kirby uses the specific name Scudderi, Uhler, 1864, instead of 

 carolinensis, Gerst, i85o. As these names are admittedly synonymous, it 

 is not clear why the one first established is not used. 



Stencpelmatup, Burm. — S. ociclaius, Scudd., and hydrocephalus, 

 Erunn., are placed in synonymy under cephalotes, Walk., a species 

 hitherto not found in our catalogues. These three species will veiy likely 

 eventually fall through preoccupation by fnscus, Hald., which was 

 described in 1852. 



Diestrammena, Brunn. — Mr. Kirby has recorded no species of this 

 genus as occurring in the New World. One species, however, D. 

 marmorata, has occurred for several years in injurious numbers in 

 jMinnesota greenhouses, and another species, D. iinicolor, has been 

 recorded from Illinois, where it was introduced, probably, wuh plants. 



Spilacris, Rehn. — This is a synonym of Scudderia, the type, 6". 

 maculatus, being an immature specimen of a species of that genus. 



Hadencjecus, Scudd. — I do not find H. puteanus. Scudd., in the 

 Catalogue. 



Udeopsylla, Scudd. — Gigantea, Brunn., belongs to this genus, not to 

 Daihinia. 



AcHETiD.-K (Gryllidte). 



Gr)llotalpa, Latr. — Tb.is familiar name is in part replaced by Curtilla, 

 Oken, and in part by the new name, N'eocurtilla, the latter covering those 

 species having the posterior tibiae unarmed on the Upper border, typified
