Sumario:The collection of Palaearctic Orthoptera formed by Dr. Malcolm Burr has been presented by him tcYthe Hope Museum, Oxford University. Owing to the kindness of Professor Sir Edward Poulton, it has been kept until recently in the British Museum (Natural History), where it formed a most useful supplement to the Museum collection. In the meantime, I was able gradually to work through the Burr collection, to check the determinations and bring the nomenclature up to date. This work has been now completed and the collection removed to Oxford, while a duplicate set of more interesting species has been kindly presented to the British Museum.
