monsoon rains typically first arrive in July and August, there may not be adequate time for second generation adults to appear before the arrival of cool fall temperatures, if egg development only first starts with the arrival of moisture. We suspect that if the first rains arrive in July, there will be enough time for some second-generation adults, although their contribution to the following years population is unknown. What is apparent from the laboratory data is that since many nymphs from first-generation adults grow slowly, there will still be many individuals overwintering as late instars even in years with early July monsoon rainfall. Such a range of maturation dates results in flexibility, depending on rainfall and temperatures, within the population: early hatching would give the nymphs a chance to mature the same summer rather than overwintering as late instars and becoming adults the following spring. We would also like to see research into how long

The plants with the most singers were those with live blades near the top but with dead flower stalks and dead skirts on lower three to four feet. Breaking off such plants at ground level and pounding the main stalk on open ground resulted in individuals being thrown onto the ground. Displaced individuals quickly attempted, many times successfully, to jump back into the plant being beaten.

In fact, this technique was much more successful than collecting later in summer when most of population is adult because, during the latter period, adult males seldom wander and infrequently come to oatmeal trails. Much greater success comes from collecting late instars and raising them to adult, especially at this site where collecting of singing adult males is extremely difficult due to their calling from impenetrable locations under, and within sharp, succulent sotol plants.</paragraph>
