Neotettix femoratus (Scudder). 



One male and three females from Pablo Beach, August 12 and 13. 

 taken in open pine woods undergrowth and palmetto scrub, represent 

 this species. All the specimens are short-winged. 



Neotettix bolteri Hancock. 



An adult female and a nymph from Gainesville, August 16 and 17, 

 belong to this rather scarce species. One was taken from a marshy 

 sink-hole, the other in pine woods undergrowth. 



Apotettix rugosus (Scudder). 



A male individual from Cedar Keys, August 15, appears to represent 

 this species. In the proportions of the pulvilli of the caudal tarsi it 

 does not agree with the description given by Hancock,^ and resembles 

 in this respect the much smaller Apotettix minutus Rehn and Hebard, 

 It is possible this specimen may not be true rugosus, but in all characters 

 but the pulvilli proportions it is fully typical of that species, 



Tettigidea spicata Morse. 



A single male from San Pablo, August 13, was taken in undergrowth 

 in pine woods. It belongs to the form with the elongate pronotum. 

 Tettigidea lateralis (Say). 



This variable species is represented by a series of eight males and 

 seven females from Pablo Beach, August 12 and 13, and one male 

 from Gainesville, August 16. Individuals were taken in swampland, 

 palmetto scrub, in undergrowth in pine woods and on damp sand. All 

 the specimens are of the type with the produced pronotum, and con- 

 siderable variation in the cephalic angle of the pronotum is observed. 



Radinotatum brevipenne (Thomas). 



This peculiar grasshopper was numerous in localities in pine woods 

 undergrowth at Gainesville, August 16, two males, five females and one 

 nymph being collected. At Pablo Beach, August 11 to 13, two males 

 and five nymphs were taken in grass, palmetto scrub, pine woods 

 undergrowth, and one of the males in marshland. Compared with 

 spring experience around Thomasville, Ga., this species is not as com- 

 mon in the summer, but the number of adults is proportionately greater. 



Mermiria alacris Scudder. 



This strikingl}^ colored species was numerous in pine woods under- 

 growth and palmetto scrub at Pablo Beach, August 11 and 13, six 

 adult males, four females and three nymphs being collected. A single 

 female from San Pablo, August 13, and three males from Gainesville,
