140 DE. J. E. T. AITCHISON ON THE ZOOLOGY OF 



13. EUPREPOCNEMIS LITTORALIS. 



Gryllus Uttoralis, Ramb. Faune Ent. de rAndalusie, ii. p. 78j pi. vii. figs. 1, 2 (1839 ?). 



Three specimens, apparently belonging to this species. It has previously been recorded 

 from South Spain, Egypt, Kordofan, Ehodes, and Beyrout. 

 Hah. Between Quetta and Khusan. 



14. ACRIDA GBA.NDIS (?). 



Tryxalis grandis, King, Symb. Phys. ii. pi. xv. fig. 1 (1830). 



A bleached specimen, agreeing fairly with King's figure, but exhibiting no trace of 

 blue or red colour at the base of the hind wings. It is very doubtful how far the 

 numerous named species of this genus are really distinct. King described the species 

 from Egypt. 



Sah. Between Quetta and Khusan.

15. Statjeonotus makoccanus. 



Gryllus maroccanus , Tbunb. Mem. Acad. Petersb. v. p. 244 (1815). 



A common species round the Mediterranean, and one of the most abundant and 

 destructive locusts in Cyprus. 

 Uab. Badghis. 



locustin^. 



16. LoctjSta danica. 



Gryllus [Locusta) danicus, Linn. Syst. Nat. i. (2) p. 702. n. 77 (1767). 



Three specimens of another widely-ranging locust, which is met with in most parts 

 of the Old World. 



Hal). Between Quetta and Khusan. 



17. Sphingonotus kittakti (?). 



Sphingonotus kittaryi, Saiiss. Mem. Soc. Phys. Geneve, xxviii. (2) no. 9, p. 207 (1884). 



A single discoloured specimen, probably belonging to this species. Saussure's types 

 were received from Turkestan and the shores of the Caspian. 

 Sal). Hari-rud valley and Khorasan. 



18. TnillNCHUS CAMPANULATUS (?). 



ThrincMis campanulatus , Fiscb. Bull. Mose. vi. p. 378 (1883) ; Orth. Ross. p. 2o7, pi. xi. fig. 1 (1846). 

 Two specimens, differing from the figure chieily in the narrower band on the hind 

 wings. Described by Eischer de Waldheim from Georgia. 

 Hah. Ilari-rud valley and Khorasan, Persia. 



In addition to the previously-mentioned Orthoptera, there is a species of Caloptenus (?) 

 new to the British Museum (one mature and two immature specimens), and one or two 

 other immature specimens, which I am not at present disposed to notice further.
