Oedipoda carinata, Scudd. Trans. Am. Ent. Soc, II, 306. 



Tomonotus cariiiatus, Tlios. Synop. Acrid., 106. 

 The fir.st and second varieties (^sulpkurcus and .ranihopterus) are 

 found, 1 believe, throughout the state, though the former largely pre- 

 dominates, as far as my observations have gone ; but there is such a 

 complete gradation from one to the other in all the characters by which 

 they are supposed to differ, that very often it is impossible to tell to 

 which a specimen belongs. The variety cariiiatus is found only iu the 

 north-west part of the state. 



20. T. tenebrosus, Scudu. 



Oedipoda tenebrosa, Scudd, Hayden's, Geol. Surv. Neb., 251.

 This is occasionally seen in the extreme north-western part of the 

 state : I have seen but one specimen collected in the state, and that 

 was by Miss ¥j. A. Smith, of Peoria.
