GryUodcs ticOUtw (Walker). The characteristic, very rapid, 

 stridulation of this species was heard in buildings both at 

 Miami Beach and Miami, bnt no efforts were made to cap- 

 ture specimens. 



Aiuucipha tda" new species (PI. XX, figs. 3A-3D). 



Goscly related to A. vittata}* diflPering in the uniform dark 

 coloration, proportionately longer and more attenuate limbs 

 and spines of the caudal femora. The tegminal cross-veinlets 

 of the female are also more distinct than in that species or 

 in the closely related A. pulicaria. 



Type: 9 ; red mangrove swamp on edge of Brickell's Ham- 

 mock, Miami. Florida, March i6, 191 5. (Hebard; among 

 roots above black muck, sodden leaves and tidal litter.) 

 [Hebard Collection, Type No. 404.I 



Pfscription of Type. Site small, form rather slender for the genus 

 (similar to that of viUala hot with limbs proportionately longer). 

 Hflid, prooodim and ov i po ail or as in vitiata. Limbs more elongate 

 and propoftfao a tely more slender than in that species. Caudal tibiae 

 with dorsal margins snpplicd with three pairs of long alternating 

 spines which are all distinctly longer than the spaces intervening be- 

 tween their hascs. Distal extremity of caudal femora supplied with 

 three small esctcmal and two decidedly larger internal spurs; of the 

 external three the dorsal is so small that it can scarcely be detected 

 with a hand lens, while the median is the longest and about half as 

 long as the ventro-intemal, wMdi b about three-fifths as long as the 

 dorso-intemal spur (in these diaracters agreeing with tittatus bnt 

 with tarsi longer). Caudal metatarsus elongate, one and one-quarter 

 as long as the longest tibial spur and equalling in length the 

 tibial spine. Tegmina much as in viltala but with cross-vein- 

 lets few but distinct : wings not apparent (Coloration distinctive. 



Allotype: 3 ; same data as type excepting date, March 15, 



1915. 



Description of Allotype. Agrees with type in all characters com- 

 mon to both sexes. Tegmina similar to those of i-itiata and pulicaria.
