Helanoplas impndicns Scudder. 



Between Harris and White Horse, Aug. 13, 1902 (Rehn), 

 Atsion, Sept. 2, 1901 (Rehn) and Oct. 8, 1903 (Hebard). 



This species has never before been recorded on the Atlantic 

 north of Georgia, from which State and Mississippi Scudder 

 described it. Prof. A. P. Morse has very kindly examined 

 several New Jersey specimens and pronounced them impudicus. 

 The Academy collection contains a male specimen taken at 

 Chickamauga, Walker Co., Georgia, June 24, 1898 (Viereck). 



Melanoplas femar-mbnim (De Geer). 



Near West Creek, Sept. 6, 1903 (Rehn). Stafford's Forge, 

 Sept. 6, 1903 (Rehn). Atsion, Oct. 8, 1903 (Hebard). 



This common and widely distributed species appears to be 

 absent from the true barrens, but any small cultivated clearing 

 though surrounded entirely by heavy timber, will contains its 

 colony oi fenuir-rubt-iun . 



Helanoplas luridus (Dodge). 



Between Cedar Grove and Chatsworth, Sept. 7, 1903 (Rehn). 

 Whitings, Sept. 5, 1903 (Rehn). 



After examining the material in hand I heartily endorse 

 Blatchley's recent work in synonymizing M. collinus with this 

 species (Orth. of Ind., p. 325), on evidence supplied by Morse 

 after examining the material in the Scudder collection. 



Melanoplns femoratns (Burmeister). 



Atsion, Oct., 8, 1903 (Hebard). Between Cedar Grove and 

 Chatsworth, Sept. 7, 1903 (Rehn). Near West Creek, Sept. 

 6, 1903 (Rehn). 



Parozya scndderi Blatchley. 



Atsion, Oct. 8, 1903 (Hebard). Speedwell, Aug. 12, 1902 

 (Rehn). Bear Swamp, Aug. 13, 1903 (Rehn). 



A series of nine specimens from New Jersey appear to be 

 identical with authentic specimens ( $ and $ ) kindly furnished 

 by Prof. Blatchley. This form is in New Jerse}- a cold bog 

 species, and at Bear Swamp was taken together with P. flori- 

 diajia, which is explained by the location of the Swamp at 

 the extreme western edge of the cedar swamp and bog region,
