although, as shown above, material from the borderland of the two 

 forms is more or less intermediate in character. 



Nemobius fasciatus socius Scudder. 



This southern race of N. fasciatus is represented by two males and 

 eight females from Raleigh, taken July 8-18, August 16-30 and 

 September 2-20, 1904, and one male from New Berne, secured August 

 24, 1909. Of this series one pair from Raleigh are macropterous, the 

 remainder being brachypterous. 



The Raleigh specimens were taken in pine woods, in stubble and 

 broomstraw field, in grass around edge of marsh and at electric lights. 



Nemobius maculatus Blatchley. 



Two males from Sulphur Springs, taken September 24, 1904, and 

 two individuals of the same sex from Raleigh, secured September 15, 

 1904, are referred to this species after comparison with typical Indiana 

 material. 



This is the first authentic record of the species for the southeastern 

 States. 23 



At Raleigh the species was taken at the edge of a marsh. 



Nemobius oarolinus Scudder. 



One male and two females from Balsam, taken at an elevation of 

 3,500 feet on October 7, 1905, and a pair from Raleigh, secured August 

 4 and September 5, 1904, represent this species. 



The Raleigh specimens are somewhat larger than the Balsam 

 individuals and the male proves the occurrence of macropterism in 

 this species, the other representatives being of the usual brachypterous 

 type. 



At Raleigh the species was taken from under a plank in a garden 

 and at light in house, while at Balsam the specimens were captured 

 among damp grasses in the heavy deciduous forest. 



The only previous North Carolina record is that of the types, which 

 had no exact locality. 



Gryllus pennsylvanicus Burmeister. 



A series of six males and three females taken at Sulphur Springs, 

 May 10-27 and June 5 and 13. are before us. 

 Gryllus neglectus Scudder. 



Two males and two females taken at 4.500 feet elevation and on the 

 summit bald of Mt. Pisgah, October 1. 1904, are referable to this form, 



23 The record of this species from Thomasville, Ga., made by the authors 

 (Proc. Acad. Nat. Sci. Phila., 1904, p. 799) is erroneous, the material having 

 been brachypterous individuals of N. fasciatus socius.
