such as Joe-pye weed {Enpatorium purpureum L.), swamp 

 dock {Rumex verticillatus L.), swamp milkweed (Asclepias 

 incarnata Lv.)> grasses, sedges, and cottonwood and willow 

 seedlings, forming a thick growth eighteen inches or more in 

 height. Among the herbage of this habitat the following spe- 

 cies were found to occur: 



Acrydiuin granulatum Dichromorpha viridis 



Acrydium ortiatum Melanoplus mexicanus atlaiiisj 



Acrydium arenosum angustum* Paroxya clavuliger hoosieri* 



Paratettix cucuUatus* Nemobius fasciatus fasciatus* 



Tettigidea lateralis parvipennis* Nemobius caroliiius carolinus 



Tettigidea armata\ Gryllus assimilis 

 Chortophaga viridifasciata* 



Moist meadow habitat. Moist, grassy meadows are found 

 in some of the ravines and in parts of the Galien River flood- 

 plain in cleared areas near the Warren Woods. Most of these 

 are pastured; the grazing of the stock keeps the grass in them 

 smooth and short, so that a thick, rich carpet of grass resem- 

 bling a lawn is formed. In the wetter portions there are occa- 

 sional patches of sedges, lizard's tail [Sanrunis cernuus L.), 

 and iris. Similar conditions, except for the taller, more lux- 

 uriant growth of grass and herbage, were found in a hum- 

 mocky meadow bordering Klute's lakes, three miles south of 

 Three Oaks, and also in a low, moist field just back of the 

 dunes between Bridgman and Sawyer. The following species 

 were taken in this habitat : 



Acrydium ornatnm Melanoplus bi7jittatus* 



Tettigidea lateralis parvipennis Scudderia pistillata* 



Tryxalis hrevicornis Amblycorypha oblongifolia 



Chloealtis conspersa Orchelimum vulgare* 



Chortippus curtipennis* Orchelimum gladiator* 



Dissosteira carolimrf Gryllotalpa hexadactyla 



Spharagemon bollif Nemobius fasciatus fasciatus* 



Nemobius carolinus carolinus*
