THE DISTRIBUTION OF INSECTS IN NEW HAMPSHIRE. 279 



39. Teiiix omata Scudd. This more southern species is still found in 

 New Hampshire, at least in the southern portion ; other northern locali- 

 ties are Norway, Me., and Royalton, Vt. It extends southward as far as 

 the District of Columbia, southern Illinois, and eastern Missouri. 



40. Tettix triangularis Scudd. This species, which also occurs in 

 southern New Hampshire, seems to have a distribution very similar to 

 that of the preceding, having also been taken in Maine, and extending as 

 far south as the middle states ; it does not seem to have been noticed far 

 west, but has been taken at Prescott, Canada West. 



41. Tettigidea lateralis Scudd. Also a southern species, but found in 

 southern New Hampshire, and in Maine as far north as Norway. South- 

 ward, it extends to Florida, and westward to southern Illinois and the 

 vicinity of St. Louis. 



42. Tettigidea polymorpha Scudd. The distribution of this species is 

 apparently identical with that of the preceding. It is found in southern 

 New Hampshire and in Maine as far as Norway, where it is said to be 

 common ; southward it is recorded as far as Alabama, and west to Pres- 

 cott, Canada West, southern Illinois, and the vicinity of St. Louis, Mo. 



43. Batrachidea cristata Scudd. This species has apparently a more 

 limited range. It is recorded from New Hampshire, but from what por- 

 tion of it is unknown ; in Maine it has been taken in the centre of the 

 state, and at Norway "on rocky hills." Southward it extends to the mid- 

 dle states, but is not mentioned from any point farther west. 



PHASMIDA. 



44. Diapheromera femorata Scudd. [Plate A, Fig. 3.] The walking- 

 stick appears to be rare north of Massachusetts ; it has, however, been 

 taken in New Hampshire, and I have found it as far north as Sudbury, 

 Vt, and even in the Red river settlements in British America. It has 

 also been taken in Prescott, Canada West, and extends as far west as 

 Nebraska, Kansas, and Iowa, and southward to Virginia, and, judging 

 from poor specimens, from the farther parts of Texas. It lives mostly 

 upon the lower branches of oaks, or on young trees of less than a man's 

 height. The eggs are dropped loosely upon the ground, and do not 

 hatch until the succeeding year, sometimes not until the second year. 



BLATTARI^.
