plish in one male and slightly so in several others. But four specimens 

 are of the full green coloration, i.e., without lateral pale bars or traces 

 of dorsal suffusion of purplish. 



Leptysma marginicoUis (Serville). 



This species was found at Pablo Beach associated with the preceding. 

 Two males, six females and four nymphs, representing two stages, were 

 collected on August 1 1 . The least developed of the nymphs was taken 

 in palmetto scrub. 



The lateral pale bars are strongly indicated in but foiu- of the adult 

 specimens. 

 Sohistoceroa amerioana (Drury). 



Two females taken at Gainesville, August 16 and 17, in grassland and 

 in undergrowth in pine woods, represent this species. 



Schistocerca damnifica (Saussure). 



Two males from Pablo Beach (August 11 and 12), one from San 

 Pablo (August 13) and another from Gainesville represent this species. 

 The Pablo Beach individuals were taken in open palmetto scrub and 

 the others in undergrowth in pine woods. 



An interesting fact concerning this species is that New Jersey 

 specimens have the tegmina and wings distinctly shorter than Florida 

 and Georgia specimens, the tegmina also with distal extremity broad 

 and blunter, while the antennae are usually longer and slenderer in the 

 southern specimens. This species was noticed but not captured at 

 Riverside, near Jacksonville. 

 ScMstocerca alutacea (Harris). 



The authors being of the opinion that S. alutacea (Harris) and 

 rubiginosa (Scudder) represent color phases of the same species, the 

 two types are here treated together. Fifteen males and ten females 

 are included in the collection, of which three males and one female 

 represent the alutacea type, the others being similar to northern 

 " rubigitiosa" individuals from the immediate coast, but with longer 

 tegmina and wings than representatives from points in the interior of 

 the pine barrens of New Jersey. 



The entire series except one male is from Pablo Beach, taken August 

 11 and 12, all from open palmetto scrub except one female of the 

 alutacea form taken in a swampy spot. Two males of the alutacea 

 type — in fact the only males of this type taken at PabloBeach — were 

 collected in the open palmetto scrub in association with ^'rubiginosa" 

 type. Gainesville is represented by one male of the alutacea type, 

 taken August 17 in grassland.
