FAMILY VII.— GKYLLID.-E. 



275 



female, 6 mm.; length of ovipositor, 3.5 min.; of antenna? 



of male, 32 mm. 



This insect (Fig. 185) has twice been captured among the 



tall weeds near the Mississippi River, but is not common. 



Its habit of living mostly on bushes and rarely on the ground 



also distinguishes it from the members of the genus Nemo 



bius, which all prefer the ground. 



The sub-family Eneopterinas is represented in Minnesota 

 by one genus with onespecies, the Orocharis 

 sa/tatorUhler ( Fig. 186). But as this insect 

 belongs in the South, where it inhabits trees 

 and bushes, it is doubtful whether it really 

 occurs here or not. The table of sub- 

 families gives the characters of the genus, 

 to which should be added that no more 

 than two oblique veins traverse the median 

 area of the t\'mpanum of the male teg- 

 mina, and are found in the proximal por- 

 tion only, and that the fore tibiiE pos- 

 sess auditor}^ foramina on both faces. The 

 insect resembles a stout brown tree- 

 cricket.
