A CATALOGUE OF TEXAN FORFICULID^, 

 , MANTID^E AND PHASMID^E. 



This catalogue is compiled from the references given by 

 Scudder in his Index to North American Orthoptera, with the 

 more recent additions interpolated. The records given in the 

 preceding portion of this paper, and those from specimens 

 contained in the collection of the Academy of Natural Sci- 

 ences of Philadelphia are also included. This work, being in 

 fact only a "first list," is necessarily very brief and some- 

 what unsatisfactory in character, but this is wholly due to the 

 lack of definite localities, something greatly to be deplored 

 when we consider the very extensive area and varied condi- 

 tions of the great State of Texas.
