RECORDS AND DESCRIPTIONS OF BRAZILIAN ORTHOPTERA. 



BY JAMES A. G. REHN. 



The records and descriptions in the present paper have been ac- 

 cumulating for approximately five years during the study of more 

 representative regional series of Brazihan Orthoptera. Aside from 

 the geographic data here presented, the taxonomic and variational 

 information thus sifted out and here brought together is of very 

 considerable value. 



Two hundred and nineteen specimens are discussed, representing 

 one hundred and two species belonging to seventy-six genera, of 

 which seventeen species and one genus are described as new. In 

 addition it has been necessary to give one new generic name. 



The material treated belongs almost wholly to The Academy of 

 Natural Sciences of Philadelphia, the Hebard Collection, which 

 is on deposit at the Academy, the United States National Museum, 

 the Museum of Comparative Zoology, and Cornell University, 

 to the authorities of which institutions the author is indebted for 

 the opportunity to study these collections. These institutions are 

 indicated through the following pages by their respective initials.
