NON-SALTATORIAL AND ACRIDOID ORTHOPTERA FROM SAPUCAY, 



PARAGUAY. 



BY JAMES A. G. REIIN. 



The following records and descriptions arc based on an extensive 

 series of specimens collected by Mr. W. T. Foster and now forming part 

 of the collection of Mr. Morgan Hcbard, of Chestnut Hill, Philadelphia. 



Considerable work has already been done on the Orthopterous fauna 

 of Sapucay, but an idea of the richness of this region in species may be 

 formed when w^e consider that in addition to the number already 

 recorded seven new ones are here described. 



Foiu- papers have been published bearing wholly or in the greater 

 part on the Orthoptera of Sapucay/ all of which have been of great 

 assistance to me in studying this large series of specimens. One of the 

 first of these papers treated of a small collection secured by Mr. Hebard 

 from Sapucay, the results proving of such interest that he immediately 

 endeavored to secm"e a more representative collection, an effort well 

 repaid by the magnificent series of specimens available for study. 



In many cases notes on the variability of series, both in size and 

 coloration, have been given, while comparisons with available material 

 from adjacent regions have frequently furnished information worthy of 

 record. Species which are here recorded from Sapucay for the first 

 time are preceded by an asterisk. 



The Tettigonidse (Locustidse) and Gr3dlielae of this collection will be 

 the subject of a future contribution. 



The author wishes to thank Mr. Hebard for the opportunity to study 

 this collection, a considerable representation of which has been gener- 

 ously presented to the Academy.
