Fabricius refers to the cabinet of Mr. Drury of London for a fpecimen of this rare infe@t. The authors 
who have given figures of it are De Geer, a French entomologift, and Stoll, in a work lately publifhed on 
the continent, including Cimices and Cicade. The Cicada fanguinolenta of Linnzeus being common in 
Europe, the fimilarity of names might create confufion, were we not to notice it. Our {pecies is a Cicada 
of Stoll, as well as of De Geer, which latter author we have followed in the f{pecific name. Fabricius 
having feparated the Linnzan Cicadz into feveral genera, this fpecies will be found in his Entomologiz 
Syftematica under the name Tettigonia /anguinolenta,
