from four males and three females collected at Ft. Reed, Florida, 

 by Mr. J. H. Comstock in April, 1876. As this species has not been 

 recognized by recent collectors, the two females collected April 21, 

 1876, and one male collected April 10, 1876, each marked "Type 

 specimen," and now in the collection of Cornell University, were re- 

 cently examined with much interest. The females are nymphs of A. 

 sphenarioides and have small wing-pads, while the male is a small 

 specimen of A. apt era. This last is in good condition except that 

 the antennae are gone. It has no sign of wing-pads and has the pro- 

 portionately larger head of aptera as compared with sphenarioides. 

 Also like aptera it has the hind tibiae bluish and the tarsi bright 

 pink in color. In the Scudder collection at Cambridge, Mass., there 

 is a single "type" specimen of A. rufovittata from Ft. Reed, Fla., 

 April 20, 1876. It is a female nymph of A. sphenarioides. 



As A. aptera was described from but one female, it was a simple 

 matter from insufficiency of material to overlook the male.
