Of this beautiful and peculiar species the type is the only specimen 

 which has been seen. The striking coloration is quite distinctive and 

 will immediately separate; it from L. krugii. 



This specimen I captured in the pine woods to the west of Miami, 

 It was first noticed perched on the top of a tuft of wire-grass. After 

 having swept it into the net -I very nearly lost it, for it jumped around 

 with great agility. (H.) 



Nemobius socius Seudder. 



An adult female and an immature individual from Tampa, taken 

 January 16 and 17, 1904, represent this species. The adult has the 

 tegmina but slightly longer than the head and pronotum, while the 

 wings are not visible. In all other respects, however, the Tampa 

 female is inseparable from macropterous individuals from Thomas ville, 

 Georgia. 



Nemobius ambitiosus Scudder. 



This beautiful species is represented by three specimens, two males 

 and a nymph, from Miami, taken February 6, 1904, and a pair from 

 Tampa, taken January 16 and 17, 1904. 



This species is almost invariably found in dead leaves. (H.) 



Nemobius aterrimus Scudder. 



This species, originally described from Jacksonville, Florida, is repre- 

 sented by a pair taken at Tampa on January 17, 1904. 

 Gryllus firmus Scudder. 



A single male from Miami represents this species. 

 Gryllus rubens Scudder. 



This species is represented by a series of ten males and sixteen 

 females. 



Miami specimens were taken on February 6, 1904, and August 19 

 and 21, 1903; Tampa specimens on January 16, 1904, and Chokoloskee
