Tided the latter into Latreille's two sections of Cursoria, — families 

 Blattina, Mantodea and Phasmodea, and Saltatoria, — families Acridi- 

 odea, Locustina and Gryllodea. The same arrangement was followed 

 by DeHaan in 1842. 



Westwood, in his Introduction to the modern classification of In- 

 sects, published in 1839-40, separated the Forficulariaj from the other 

 Orthoptera under the name of Euplexoptera; and divided the Or-

 tid£E, Ambulatoria, — family Phasmidaj and Saltatoria, — families Ach- 

 etidse (Gryllides), Gryllidse (Locustarise) and Locustidas (Acrydii). 



Blanchard, in the third volume of his Histoire naturelle des ani-

 Locustiens, Grylliens and Acridiens.

 Russia, to his knowledge) into Cursoria, — including Blattina and 

 Mantodea and Saltatoria, — including Gryllodea, Locustina and 

 Acridiodea, 



In 1850, Fieber divided the Orthoptera as follows: 



In 1854 he proposed a similar scheme, which I have not seen, but 

 wliifh Gerstsecker in his Bericht reports substantially as follows: the
