Snow for the opportunity to examine the material from the collection.^ 

 mentioned above. 



FORFICULID^. 



SPONGIPHORA Serville. 

 Spongiphora apioidentata Caudell. 



Huachuca Mountains, August 22 (Schaeffer), 1 9 . 



This is the species recorded from Florence, Pinal Co., Arizona, as 

 Labia 7ntiancholica,^ and two d"' and one 9 from Riverside, Riverside 

 Co., California, have also been seen. Of the ten specimens here 

 examined but two, the Huachuca specimen and one from Florence, 

 have the yellowish spot on the exposed portion of the wings strongly 

 marked. 



APTERYGIDA Westwood. 

 Apterygida linearis (Esch.)- 



Douglas, August (F. H. Snow), 1 9 . 



BLATTID^. 

 ISCHNOPTERA Burmeister. 

 Isohnoptera uhleriana Saussure. 



Palmerlee (Schaeffer), 1 9 . 



This specimen agrees very well with Saussure and Zehntner's descrip- 

 tion of the female of this species, but it is clearly separable from Tem- 

 nopteryx virginica Brunner, which has been considered the female of 

 this species. The tegmina are longer and rounded as in the female of 

 Ischnoptera pennsylvanica , the latter being Phyllodromia borealis of 

 authors, and not truncate as in " Temnopteryz virginica." In general 

 the specimen in hand resembles what I have considered the female of 

 couloniana, but is smaller, with a comparatively greater space between 

 the eyes, and with the supra-anal plate of a different shape, being more 

 transverse and less produced. This specimen is clearly what Saussure 

 and Zehntner called the female of uhleriana, and this seems to raise a 

 ciuestion as to whether Ischnoptera uhleriana and unicolor might not be 

 separable in the female sex, with very similar males. Male individuals 

 of uhleriana have been recorded by Caudell from the Huachuca 

 Mountains and the Patagonia and Santa Rita IMountains, south- 

 eastern Arizona.
