42 NORTH AMERICAN BLATTIDAE 



Though its probable natural daytime habitat is under the bark of 

 these trees, the series was taken almost exclusively under signs on 

 the trunks, sometimes as many as eight or ten examples being 

 under one sign. The insects when disturbed were active, but 

 seldom attempted flight, running about on the trunk to hide in 

 cracks of the bark or dropping to the ground. With them were 

 frequent colonies of Etirycotis floridana, more rarely of Peri- 

 planeta australasiae, while in one case a specimen of Parcoblatta 

 fiilvescens was noted to be not only more active in its movements, 

 but quick to seek safety in flight. 



The material recorded below represents all that has been se- 

 cured of the present species.
