The Slit-footed Monster. 



This n-niarkable cricket is a native ot Iiuiia. The extremities of its limbs are fringed with lobes, which doubtless assist it in securing linn 

 hold alter a leap, but which have suggested to its scientific sponsors that its feet are slit. The long w ings have their tips rolled up and culled 

 ill a manner that is not shared by other members of the family. It is usually classified among the long-horned grasshoppers, but its build 

 is clearly that of a cricket.
