PSYCHE. 



[May 189T. 



100. Tettigidea lateralis Say. This 

 form is not uncommon at Moline but it 

 is apparently much more common south- 

 ward. I have a number of specimens 

 collected from Aug. 9th to 16th; some 

 of them are full grown but the majority 

 are pupae in the last stage. 



101. Tettigidea polymorpha Burm. 

 I have not found this species in the 

 neighborhood of Moline, but I have a 

 number of specimens collected by Mr. 

 Hart in the central part of the State. 



Phasmidae. 



102. Diapheromera sayi Gray. 

 This species is not uncommon in Rock 

 Island county and probably it is not less 

 common throughout the State, though 

 its form and habits render it too incon- 

 spicuous to be known by many. July 

 nth is the earliest date I have for its 

 capture at Moline. 



*ro3. Diapheromera velii Walsh, 

 Proc. ent. soc. Philad., v. 3, 410. 



104. Anisomorpha buprestoides 

 Stoll. A single specimen in the mu- 



seum of the State laboratory of natural 

 history is labeled $ Saratoga, Union 

 Co., 111., July 1S77. 



Mantidae. 



105. Stagmo mantis Carolina Linn. 

 This species occurs not rarely in the 

 southern part of the state. 



Blattidae. 



*io6. Blatta germanica Fab. Given 

 on the authority of Thomas. 



*io f ]. Periplaneta americana\Jvnx\. 

 Is in no collection of Illinois Orthoptera 

 that I have seen, but I include it on the 

 authority of Thomas. 



108. Periplaneta orientalis Linn. 

 Too abundant in old houses. 



109. Ischnoptera pennsylvanica De 

 Geer. Not found in Rock Island county, 

 but it is common in the southern part 

 of the state, where it is common under 

 old logs. 



*iio. Ischnoptera unicolor Scudd. 

 Given on the authority of Thomas. 



A SUPPLEMENTARY NOTE ON DIABROTICA 12-PUNCTATA. 



BY H. GARMAN, LEXINGTON, KY. 



After the first part of my paper on 

 this insect was published (Psyche, v. 6, 

 p. 29) and the second part was nearly 

 all in print, I received from Prof. C. V. 

 Riley a copy of his notes on the habits 

 and life-history of the species with per- 



mission to use them in what I might 

 subsequently write. It is not now possi- 

 ble for me to take advantage of this 

 courtesy further than to add here some 

 of the more important observations 

 which his notes contain.
