416 GEOLOGICAL SURVEY OF NEW JERSEY. 



Order HEMIPTERA. 



Any list of the species of this order must necessarily be largely 

 tentative. There is not a single special collection of Hemiptera in 

 the State, and few of the collectors ever pick up a specimen except 

 where they mistake it for a beetle. The describers of species have 

 therefore derived little of their material from this State, and seldom 

 quote New Jersey among the localities. The result is that the list 

 must be made up of those species known to occur on all sides of the 

 State, and which may be therefore reasonably expected to be found 

 with us. Mr. Crane's list and the few species taken by myself are 

 the only positive records. 



Sub-Order HETEROPTERA. 



In this sub-order Uhler's Check List (Brooklyn, New York, 1886,) 

 has been my guide, and I have included those species which are 

 quoted from the United States generally, from the Atlantic States, 

 and from the Eastern States, the latter term including the Middle 

 States, in Mr. Uhler's nomenclature.
