No. 1*2.— List of Exotic Orthoptera described by /S'. If. Scudder , 
1868-1879, with a revision of their nomenclature. 
By Samuel H. Scudder. 
During the years 1868 to 1879 somewhat more than a hundred 
species of Orthoptera from regions outside of the United States were 
described by me. The modern development of Orthopterology, 
beginning with Stal in 1873 and continued by the labors of de Saus- 
sure, Brunner, Bolivar, and others, has so completely altered the face 
of the science that a revision of the forms described in this early 
period, many of which seem to be still known only by my first de¬ 
scription, appears highly desirable. The revision is confined to the 
species which were originally described as coming from outside the 
limits of the United States, as a considerable number of the native 
forms have already undergone revision at my hands in various 
papers, and others will follow in subsequent publications as they are 
studied; for this reason species credited to the United States as 
well as to regions outside are also not considered. The genera and 
species are given in alphabetical order under the families, and a 
systematic index to the same in their corrected nomenclature is 
appended. 
As nearly all these descriptions originally appeared in the Pro¬ 
ceedings of the Boston Society of Natural History, this revision is 
published in the same series, and reference to the Proceedings given 
in the briefest form.

Described from the male only. Bormans describes the female 
(Anal. Soc. Esp. Hist. Nat., 9, 508) from Peruvian specimens.

O 
3. Anecliura (bipunctata) , Proc., 18, 289, 301; Ent. Notes, 5,
