344 INSECTS ABROAD. 



" The perfect insects appear early in September, and are to 

 be found until about February. They are extremely easily 

 captured, the females being taken when in flight by a 

 common butterfly-net, and the males by going to the spot 

 from where their voices proceed and suddenly shaking the 

 bough, which causes them to drop to the ground, when they 

 may be picked up."
