It is interesting to note that the depauperate individuals are all 

 long-winged. 



At the present time it does not appear desirable to attempt to make 

 any statement on the systematic relationship of this species. To 

 regard it as an entity worthy of a name, whether specific or subspecific, 

 appears to us to be a necessary course, but what its possible origin 

 was or nearest affinities are can only be determined by careful quan- 

 titative work on not only this, but also the closely related North 

 American and West Indian species of the genus. Mr. Jones' notes 

 are to the effect thai the species is very abundant under stones. 



Gryllus luctuosus Serville. 



This species has been recorded by Uhler and Verrill, and also as the 

 synonymous dbbrevicUus by the latter author. It is quite probable 

 that these references really belong to the preceding species, G. ber- 

 mudensis. 



Gryllus assimilis Fabricius. 



Dahl has credited this species, but no doubt the reference really 

 belongs to G. bermiulensis. 



Liphoplus krugii Saussure. 



Four females of this species, taken January G and 18 in Paget West, 

 are in the collection. When compared with Cuban specimens they 

 are found to be inseparable. The collector's notes are to the effect 

 that the species is not frequent and that the specimens were beaten 

 from cedar trees. 



This is the first record of the species from the Bermudas. 



Cylindrogryllus sp. 



Dahl has recorded an undetermined species of this South American 

 genus as living in numbers on a gray-leafed shrub growing in moist 

 places. A strong suspicion exists in the author's mind that the well-
