SCHISTOCERCA LITEROSA Walk. 

 Taken on Chatham, Tower, and Hood. 



HALMENUS ROBUSTUS Scudd. 



In addition to this species heretofore recognized in the specimens 

 from Indefatigable, there are, on James, two other quite distinct 

 forms which I am inclined to consider of specific value. 



Indefatigable, 2 males, 6 females. 



HALMENUS CUSPID ATUS Snodgrass (MS.). 



This form is represented by so many specimens that there seems 

 little doubt that the species is a good one. 

 Albemarle, 2 males, 5 females. 



HALMENUS CHORISTOPTERUS Snodgrass (MS.). 



This form is unfortunately represented in the collection by only a 

 single specimen. 

 Charles, i female. 



LOCUSTID^. 



Subfamily PHANEROPTERINiE. 



ANAULOCOMERA DARWINII Scudd. 



The collection contains a single pair which agree well with the 

 published description, except that the anterior and middle femora have 

 no trace of spines on the lower surface. 



James, i female. Indefatigable, i male.

Thirty-seven specimens of this genus are in the collection, taken 

 from six of the islands, which are, however, very unequally repre- 

 sented. Twenty-six specimens are credited to Albemarle while Inde- 

 fatigable has but a single larva, and Barrington and James a single 

 adult each. So great is the difference among these specimens that it 

 is necessary to recognize three species and one subspecies, or prob- 

 ably four species, and each of the islands represented possesses at 

 least one distinct variety. All of these forms are, without doubt,
