Known errors

Pictorial Key to major groups of Orthoptera (pages 44 and 45)

The text and images on p. 45 are supposed to be accessed from p. 44 via the arrow at upper left on p. 45. To line up with the arrow shaft on p. 44, the text and images on p.45 should have been shifted downward about 1.5 cm (5/8 inch).

The text and images on p. 51 are supposed to be accessed from p. 50 via the two arrows on the left of p. 51. To line up with the arrow shafts on p. 50, the text and images on p.51 should have been shifted downward about 3 cm (1 1/8 inch).
