BIBLIOGRAPHICAL NOTES. 



The modern system of Orthoptera was first laid down in general 

 treatises by Burraeister and Serville (quoted below), but these 

 works are now of relatively small value, since the study of each 

 family has been much more fully developed independently by 

 various later writers, to whom, when American groups are treated, 

 reference is made farther on. The latest general system of 

 Orthoptera — a sketch only — is to be found in Brunner's Revi- 

 sion du systdme des Orthopt^res (1893). Other general works 

 that may be consulted for North American Orthoptera are 

 Scudder's Catalogue of the earlier described species (1868), and 

 Glovers' Illustrations (1872).
