296 THE ento:mologist's record. 



TETTiGin.E. — Tettix hiimnctatus, L. — Abundant everywhere. T. 

 subulatns, L. — Almost as numerous as the above, and taken nearly 

 everywhere. Both species seemed especially numerous at Comana, 

 July 12th. T. depressus, Bris. — I took a few specimens at Orsova, 

 July IGth. 



LocusTODEA. — Phaneropterid.e. — PoecUimoii thoracicus, Fieb. — 

 Very abundant on rough low herbage at Comana, July 12th, also at 

 Orsova, July 16th. P. elegans, Fieb. — Common at Bicevica, August 

 1st. Isophja rectipeymis, Br. — Fairly common at Comana, with 

 P. thoracicus, Fieb., July 12th. The only other recorded locality 

 is Brussa, in Asia Minor. My specimens were identified by Herr 

 Brunner von Wattenwyl, who remarks that it only differs from the 

 type form by its slightly smaller size. /. obtusa, Br. — Common on 

 Trebovic, July 24th. Leptopliyes alhovittatus, Koll. — Common at 

 Comana, July 12th, and at Bufta, July 14th ; taken also at Kosija 

 Cuprija near Sarajevo, July 19th. Phanerop)tera quadripunctata, 

 Br. — Common among thorny bushes, pomegranates, etc., at Blagaj, 

 August 4th. Tylopsis Uliifolia, Fabr. — One specimen, of the form 

 margineijuttata, Serv., at Rjeka, August 12th. Meconemid.t-:. — 

 Mcconetua varinin, Fabr. — One male at Comana, July 12th. Locus- 

 TiD^. — Locusta cantans, Fuessly. — Nymphs at Wolfsthal, June 28th. 

 L. candata, Charp. — On the top of the Igmdn Planina, but not very 

 common, July 21st. L. viridissima, L. — Bucarest, July 13th ; 

 Konjica, on the borderland between Bosnia and Herzegovina, July 

 31st. (hiconotus servillei, Fisch. de W. — One female at Comana, 

 July 12th, and several males at Bufta, July 14th. Although so 

 unlike L. viridissima, L., in general appearance, yet this species is 

 closely allied structurally. The stridulation is very similar. I took 

 all the males by stalking them down by their chirp. Once found, 

 they were very conspicuous, their black colour at once betraying them, 

 showing up distinctly against the thistles upon which they invariably 

 sat. The female I took at Comana crawling slowly over the long 

 grass in a shady place. Decticid^e. — Phacucleis discrepans, Fieb. — 

 The nymph was fairly common in the second week in August 

 in Montenegro, in sheltered places Avhere the grass and rough 

 herbage grew thickly. I took it at Cetinje and at Kjeka. Pachy- 

 trdckelus striolatus, Fieb. — Very common at Blagaj, August 4th, 

 but difficult to catch, being very active, and taking refuge under 

 the stones of a crumbling wall. I took the larvre and nymphs in 

 numbers among grass at Ruiste, on the southern slope of the hills. 

 P. gracilis, Br. — Not uncommon in the thick woods of the Igman 

 Planina, July 21st. Thamnotrizon littoralis, Fieb., was very numerous 

 in the Forest of Comana, July 12th, leaping about on the ground in 

 the clearings. T. chabrieri, Charp. — One small male of this magni- 

 ficent species from Blagaj, August 4th. T. transsylvanicus, Fisch. —
