The CANADIAN ENTOMOLOGIST. 55 



RECORDS IN ORTHOPrKRA FROM THE CAXADL\N 



NORTEIWES'I'. 



BY E. M. WALKKR, V..\., M.i;., TORON'IO. 



The following list of Orihoptera chiefly comi)rises the species taken 

 by the writer during a month's trip to the Canadian Pacific Coast in 1897. 

 Bu'. few stops were made, most of the specimens being taken at the various 

 "stations along the line of the Canadian Pacific Railway. As a rule, but a 

 (ew minutes to half an hour were spent at each stopping place, but in 

 Manitoba and British Columbia longer periods were spent, and belter 

 opportunities were to be had for collecting. 



The list also contains the names of a few specimens taken by Dr. 

 Fletcher in British Columbia and Manitoba during 1901. 



Very few specimens other than xAcridiid.T were taken, as the writer 

 was at that time inexperienced in collecting the Gryllid^ and Locustidie. 

 The species taken in Ontario are omitted, as they have already been 

 recorded elsewhere.
