FALL NUMBER 93 
KATYDID 
Thou art a female, Katydid! 
I know it by the trill 
That quivers through thy piercing notes 
So petulant and shrill. 
I think there is a knot of you 
Beneath the hollow tree, 
A knot of spinster Katydids— 
Do Katydids drink tea? 
(O. W. Holmes—To an Insect.) 
It is stated that over 150,000 species of beetles have been de- 
scribed in the world.
