While various conditions of the subterranean and ground strata, depending upon nearness to ground water, could be recognized, our studies have not been sufficiently detailed to warrant attempts at separation. A girdle of bulrushes can, however, often be distinguished. Bulrush girdle: Two of the large green leaf-hoppers (Draeculo- cephala mollipes [Fig. 288] and Cicadula 6-notata [Fig. 289]) are common. The damsel-bug (Reduviolus ferus), which feeds upon leaf-hoppers, is.
