BRAZILIAN ORTHOPTERA 
These specimens have been recorded by Hebard in his study of 
the genusd^ 
Gryllus assimilis (Fabricius) 
1775. [Acheta] assimilis Fabricius, Syst. Entom., p. 280. [Jamaica.] 
Tijuca. April 9 to 11, 1913. (Malcolm Burr.) One female.*® 
Trigonidiinae 
Anaxipha pallens (StM) 
1860. Trigonidium 'pollens St&l, Kong. Svenska Fregatt. Eugenics Resa, 
Insecta, p. 318. [Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.] 
Tij uca. April 9 to 11, 1913. (Malcolm Burr.) Sixteen 
males, eleven females. 
Petropolis. April 12 to 14, 1913. (Malcolm Burr.) Nine 
males, eight females, one immature female. 
The series is clearly referable to Stabs palletis, which seems to 
have been unrecognized since the original description. The 
latter is quite brief, but its features are fully apparent in this 
quite extensive series. 
The specimens have been dried after immersion in liquid 
preservative, and in consequence their color tones have been 
much altered, but the pattern is clearly apparent and as described. 
An examination of the material for the character of the per- 
foration of the cephalic tibiae shows that all*® have the tibiae 
biperforate. Two males and one female from Tijuca and one 
of each sex from Petropolis have the wings caudate; the more 
usual condition, and that described by Stal, has them completely 
hidden under the tegmina, than which the wings are distinctly, 
though somewhat variably, shorter. The size varies very con- 
siderably, from faintly under to appreciably over Stabs dimen- 
sions. 
Symphyloxiphus abbreviatum (Bruner) 
1916. Cyrtoxipha abbreviata Bruner, Ann. Carneg. Mus., x, p. 408. [Cha- 
pada, Matto Grosso, Brazil.] 
Petropolis. April 12 to 14, 1913. (Malcolm Burr.) Two 
females.

This specimen has been recorded by Rehn and Hebard in a study of the 
American representatives of the genus (Proc. Acad. Nat. Sci. Phila., 1915, 
p. 319, (1915)). 
Two specimens have no cephalic limbs.
