STUDIES IN AMERICAN TETTIGONIIDAE 

 (ORTHOPTERA)i 



I and II 



BY JAMES A. G. REHN AND MORGAN HEBARD 



The present general title is selected to cover a somewhat con- 

 nected series of systematic and geographic papers on the Tetti- 

 goniidae of the Americas. The authors have in hand for study 

 very extensive collections of the group and in the determination 

 of these series it has been, and in the future also will be, neces- 

 sary to consult the other important collections of the order. In 

 a number of cases it has proved necessary to analyze and even 

 completely revise genera to properly locate our series, and it is 

 our intention to bring out as parts under the present general 

 title the results of these studies. 



Unless otherwise specified, the material listed in these papers 

 as having been collected by the authors, jointly or individual^, 

 is to be found in the Hebard Collection and that of the Academy 

 of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia. The abbreviations used for 

 the sources of other material are in general use and clearly intel- 

 ligible. In the case of smaller collections and institutions the 

 source has been given at sufficent length to be clear to all. 



The color terms used in the descriptions are based on Ridg- 

 way's standards (Color Standards and Color Nomenclature, 1912).

A SYNOPSIS OF THE SPECIES OF THE GENUS 

 SCUDDERIA 



It has recently been necessary for the authors to record certain 

 species of the present genus, and it was found impossible to do this 

 correctlj'' without study of all of the material before us. The 

 present paper could be considered monographic, were it possible 

 to include more complete data on the distril^ution of certain of
