The description of the ventral nerve-cord of Xiphidium heregiven applies equally well to the other Orthoptera which I havestudied {Blatta germanica, Melanoplus fcviur-rubriiui). The No. I.] CONTRIBUTION TO INSECT EMBRYOLOGY. 93 points in which the Blattid and Acridian nerve-cord differ fromthat of the Locustid are so insignificant that I need not burdenthe reader with their enumeration. I will stop to mention onlytwo p
