Taken from under a sign on an oak in company with a number of 

 Periplaneta australasicc . (H.) 



Family BLATTID^. 

 Blattella germanioa (Linureus). 



Four specimens of this species from ]\Iiami have been examined. 

 Blattella adspersicollis (Stal). 



Four specimens of this West Intlian and tropical American species 

 have been examined from Miami, taken February 6, 1903, and Febru- 

 ary 1, 1904. This is the first record of the species within the United 

 States. 



The specimen captured on February 6, 1903, I took on the porch of 

 the Hotel Royal Palm in the early morning. All the others w^ere found 

 under signs on the pine trees in the town. (H.) 



Ceratinoptera lutea Saussure and Zehntner. 



An adult was taken at Tampa, in the driftwood along the shore of 

 Tampa Bay, on January 17, 1904, and one in Key West on January 20, 

 1904. The specimen taken at Tampa was so recently emerged from 

 the larval state that it had not then become hardened. (H.) 



Temnopteryx deropeltiformis Brunner. 



An adult female of this species was taken at Miami on the 5th of 

 August, 1903. This record considerably extends the range of the 

 species, Indiana being the only State from which it has previously 

 been recorded. Brunner's original description merely credited the 

 species to North America. 



Eurycotis floridana (Walker). 



This ill-smelling species is represented liy a series of twenty-eight 

 individuals in all stages of development, thirteen being adult. Tampa 

 specimens were taken January 16, 1904; Key West individuals on 

 January IS and 19, 1904; and ]\Iiami representatives on Feliruary 6, 

 1904, and July 1 and August 11, 1903. 



The greater portion of the immature individuals are of the sabaliana 

 type, with the lateral margins light-colored. In some specimens this is 

 quite marked, in others very obscure, and in a number absent; two 

 adults are noteworthy as retaining indistinct traces of this early color 

 pattern. 



I found this species moderately common under the bark of dead pine 

 stumps and logs both at Tampa and Miami. In Key West it fairly 

 swarmed under the coquina boulders in the woods, one rock often 

 disclosing a dozen, the greater part immature but ranging from tiny
