VARIATIONS IN THE WING EXPANSE OF PEZOTETTIX
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 31 May 2012
Extract
In the Can, Ent., vol, ix., p. 112, I have described as a new species,under the name of Caloptenus volucris, a long-winged variety of Pezotettix autumnalis Dodge. I separated it because of its great length of wing, in which respect it equals many specimens of Cal. spretus, while in the typical autumnalis the elytra are very short, ovate and pointed. It also exhibited sonie variations in color. The latter I have since seen paralleled irt autumnalis, and having found long-winged varieties of two other species of Pezotettix, I am now fully satisfied of the varietal character of volucris.
