of the male teiiiniiui aiul the sutural margins of the same are yellowish 

 or light grecuisli. 



Ill size the species exhibits a considerable amount of individual 

 variation, and the measurements of the extremes of the series of males 

 and also of a female specimen are here given : 



Length of bodv 30 mm. 40 mm. 38.5 mm. 



Length of proriotum 6.4 " 7.5 " 7.5 " 



Width of caudal nuuiihi of the 



pronotum 6.3 " 7 " 6.8 " 



Length of tegmen 32 " 35 " 34.2 " 



Length of caudal fenun-, . . . 23.1 " 24.2 " 26 " 



Length of ovipositor, .... 18.2 " 



In addition to the fifteen Pablo Beach males a single female, of which 

 the measurements are given above, from St. Augustine (C. W. Johnson) 

 has been examined. The range of the species is now known to extend 

 in a narrow strip along the coast from Pablo Beach, Duval County, to 

 the vicinity of Grant, Brevard County, Fla. 



Belocephalus subapterus Scudder. 



A series of eleven specimens, one adult male, three adult females and 

 seven immature individuals, represent this species. At Pablo Beach 

 it was found on August 11, 12 and 13, in palmetto scrub and in low 

 growth along the railroad track, three of the adults being taken at 

 that locality. At San Pablo, August 13, one immature individual 

 was taken in pine woods undergrowth. The remaining specimens 

 were taken at Gainesville, August 16, in pine woods undergrowth. All 

 the adults taken were in the green phase of coloration. The range of 

 this species now extends from Thomasville, Ga., to Miami and Choko- 

 loskee, southern Florida, specimens having also been recorded from 

 Fort Reed, Orange County, Fla., in addition to the localities given 

 above. 



Conocephalus retusus Scudder. 



At St. Augustine a series of four males and two females of this species, 

 were taken from the hedges of a garden on the evening of August 19. 



WTien compared with the northern Conocephalus atlanticus Bruner. 

 this species is seen to differ only in the somewhat greater general size 

 and in the longer caudal limbs. Probably atlanticus will prove to be 

 merely a smaller northern form of retusus, as a specimen from Roslyn^ 

 Alexandria County, Va. (October 22, 1900; J. A. G. Rehn), occupies 

 an intermediate position. Typical females of the two forms and the 

 Roslyn specimen measure as follows :
