' " · Introductory_ \ .. ,-, ..... ~··- Even though the problem of floods in the country is 3'1). age-old one, no attempts were made by the States concerned, till recently, to tackle it in a systematic manner. Even the minimum data necessary for the preparation of schemes were lacking. Relief measures were undertaken as and when floods occurred and such protection works· as were constructed were largely in the nature of temporary palliatives. There was no perceptible improvement in the position till the Central Government took up the matter, after the disastrous floods of 1954. · Schemes for flood control and protection cannot be worked out without the necessary technical data. Planning has t9 be done in an integrated manner. The problem is of a gigantic magnitude and adequate organizations have to be set up for the preparation and im­ plementation of the schemes. As a result of a detailed examination of the whole question last year, a programme was evolved for combat­ ing the menace of floods on a planned way over the entire country. Several essential steps were taken immediately.

Akhtar, M.K. Usmani, M.R. Nayeem Department of Zoology, Aligarh Muslim University, Aligarh- 202002, Uttar Pradesh, India *Corresponding author Md Humayoon Akhtar Email: Abstract: Grasshoppers of the subfamily Hemiacridinae are polyphagus cause heavy damage to our cash crops and play havoc with almost every type of vegetation. Hieroglyphus nigrorepletus is the pest of rice, millet, maize and sugarcane in India. Both macropterous and brachypterous forms of the species are found. Maximum number of the species has been recorded from the rice followed by maize, grass and least number of the grasshoppers collected from the pigeon pea and fodder sorghum. The macropterous form seems to be far less common than the brachypterous form. In both the forms female are larger than male, thus showing intraspecific variation in morphological characteristics.
