COLOMBIAN' DERMAPTERA AN’D ORTHOPTER.\ 
The correlation of tlie life zones found in Colombia, the probable 
channels of distribution, a general discussion of the country and 
comiiarison with other regions, from an Orthopterological point 
of view, will be treated in a later paper of this series. The pres- 
ent time would be premature for any deductions from these pre- 
liminary studies of the Dermaptera and Orthoptera of that 
country, so extensive and intricately diversified. 
We have been able to determine the elevation (in feet) for the 
following localities given in the present paper. Anolaima 5964, 
Bogota 8750, Choachi 5900, Cincinnati 4500, Espinal 1000, 
lAisagasuga 5464, Las Mesitas 3200, Mamatoco 50, Santa Marta 
0, Susuniuco 2600, ’\dllavicencio 1400. 
In this study three hundred and eighty-one specimens are 
recorded, representing sixty-seven species, of which nineteen are 
new to science, these including four new genera. Unless other- 
wise stated this material is in the Hebard Collection at the Acad- 
emy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia. 
We wish to thank most heartily both Hermano Maria and iXIr. 
Carriker for their aid in our studies of the Orthoptera of Colombia. 
No such series would have been available for study without the 
painstaking and long continued effort of these kind friends.

Though noting the ])robal)ility of generic distinction of this 
species from Psalis, we unfortunately failed, in our first ('oloni- 
bian iiajier, to remark Burr’s ])roposal of the genus Mandex, to 
include Anisolabi,s pernviana Bormans,- based on characters of 
the meta])aranieres. 
W(' are satisfied thaf peruviana and apolinari are congeneric, 
and Avilh the distinctive feature of the metatarsus, Avhich Ave have 
descrilx'd foi- the latter six'cies, avc consider Mandex a A'alid and 
distinct entity.
