The Salticidae Spiders Of Panama Classic Reprint PDF Download

Excerpt from The Blattidae of Panama As the total material collected is now much larger than has ever been assembled from one region in tropical America, it has been decided to undertake a complete summary, based on all available material from Panama, in America, with previous records and at present unrepresented species included in the tables on pages 6 to 9, to make the present work complete. The present paper, as a result, is a comprehensive summary of the Blattidae of the Canal Zone and vicinity. The Canal Zone and vicinity, with localities indicated at which material studied in the present paper was taken, is shown in Plate I of the present paper. We would remark that, in the Canal Zone and vicinity, lowland forests, marshes and limited open areas are the only types of country encountered, and that almost all of the material here studied, was taken in such environments. Very similar conditions are found in southern and eastern Costa Rica and in eastern Nic aragua to the north, and probably in northwestern Columbia to the south. Scarcely any work has, however, been done on the Orthoptera in those regions, but this, when accomplished, we feel certain will show a much wider distribution for many of the species here considered, which at present are known from comparatively limited areas on the Isthmus.
