The decided size variation is apparently due rather to local 

 environmental conditions than to true geographic influences. Thus 

 great differences are found between the Reega (which approxi- 

 mates the Swainton material) and Cardiff", Ne\v Jersey, series, 

 from localities in the pine barrens separated by but a few miles; 

 the former locality, however, showing little undergrowth, the 

 latter rich in grasses, blackberry vines, sweet-fern, etc. Some 

 geographic differences are found, however, in the contour of the 

 female tegmina and specialization of the male subgenital plate, 

 these not sufficiently pronounced or constant to warrant racial 

 recognition.
