88 PLATE CCCXCI. 



Linnaean infe6ts, and on that account more likely to have been noticed 

 than many others. Linnaeus faw it in the mufeum of Lefk, from 

 whence he defcribes it very accurately as an European infecl, in his 

 Syftema Naturae, and it appears likewife in Mufeum Le/lceiarmm. 

 It is rather lingular that Fabricius does not mention it. 



This is probably a rare fpecies on the continent, or at leaft it would 

 appear fo from the lilence of continental Entomologifts refpe&ing it. 

 Asa Britiih Infe6l Gryllus jiavipes is uncommon, having been hi- 

 therto found only by one' or two collectors : they met with it in the vi- 

 cinity of London, and fpeak of it as a fpecies peculiar to niarlhy places. 

 Found about the latter part of July. 



Both fexes are reprefented in our plate in their natural fize, and in 

 a flying pofition in order to difplay their wings in the moll pi6lurefque 

 point of view.
