ScUDDER, S. H. List of the Orthoptera of New Hampshire, with notes 
on their Geographical Distribution and Stridulation. Final Report 
upon the Geology of New Hampshire, i. pp. 3G2-380. 
Enumerates 46 known species, with copious notes on habits, &c. The 
stridulation of several species is ingeniously set to musical notation. On 
the accompanying Plate A, the following are figured: — Gryllotalpa 
borealis, Burm., fig. 7, Pesotettix glacialis, Scudd., figs. 5 & 10, and Dia- 
2 >heromera femorata, Scudd., fig. 3.

SwiNTON, A. H. Notes on certain fossil Orthoptera claiming affinity 
with the genus Gryllacris. Geol. Mag. (2) i. pp. 337-341, pi. xiv. 
A comparison of the sound-producing organs in fossil, with those of 
recent species, the author insisting that these organs in the species in- 
habiting the cryptogamic forests of the coal-measure period, were con- 
structed in the same manner as in those that now exist. On the plato 
a (restored) figure of Gryllacris ungeri, Heer, is given, together with 
enlarged outlines of the neuration of recent species and of G. hrongniarti, 
Audouin. 
Giuliani (Bull. Ent, Ital. vi. pp. 9G-98) notices certain species taken
