Extract

Since the recognition by Bolivar (1912) of Hieroglyphus nigrorepletus as a distinct species, Coleman's (1914) note and Uvarov's (1922) valuable revision of the rice grasshoppers, it has been clear that in the earlier literature this species has been confused with H. banian, F., chiefly under the name of H. furcifer, Serv., while H. bettoni, Kirby, 1914, and H. vastator, Carl. 1916, are synonyms.
