LECANIUM. ll 
5. Lecanium longulum. 
Lecanium longulum, Douglas, Ent. Monthly Mag. 1887, p. 97. 
Hab. Mexico: Frontera, on “nancem,” June 25 (Townsend); Panama, 1898 (Dolby- 
Tyler). 
6. Lecanium sallei. 
Lecanium sallei, Sign. Essai sur les Cochenilles, p. 240 (1873). 
Hab. Mexico (Sallé). 
7. Lecanium imbricatum. 
Lecanium imbricatum, Ckll. Bull. 4, Techn. Ser., Div. Ent., Dept. Agric. (1896) p. 38. 
Hab. Mexico: Alta Mira in Tamaulipas (Zownsend) ; Frontera, on an unknown tree, 
May 1897 (Townsend). 
Two varieties of this species were also found, as follows :— 
L. imbricatum, var. Male scales rather broader and clearer thaw in type. Female apparently without the 
brown glands.—On a shrub in woods (leaves 6 to 7 inches long, 23 wide, lighter green and not glabrous 
below), Frontera, Tabasco, April 14, 1897 (Townsend). 
L. imbricatum, var. Female scale about 6 millim. long, 32 broad, 2 high ; rather elongate-oval, flattish, dull, 
pale brown, with very large and deep punctures, except in the middle of the dorsum. The scale itself 
is shiny, but it is covered by a dirty-looking layer of wax, which gives it a dull and almost woolly 
appearance. The following measurements (in «) are by Mr. Parrott: femur 39 long by 50 broad; 
tibia + tarsus 56 long, 42 broad at base. Antenne 75 p long, 45 broad at base, last segment 19 broad at 
base. Circular glands 14 diameter. Male scales glassy, quite broad, overlapping one another.— 
Tlacotalpam, April 20, 1898, on branches, twigs, and leaves of “ limon real,” 4. ¢. shaddock (7Z'ownsend). 
8. Lecanium chilaspidis. 
Lecanium chilaspidis, Ckll. Canad. Entom. 1897, p. 268. 
Hab. Mexico: Tehuantepec city (Townsend). 
The name of the plant on which this was found, “ Chilaspis,” is wrong, and is 
probably a blunder for Chilopsis; nevertheless, the specific name of the insect can 
remain. 
9. Lecanium tubuliferum. 
Lecanium tubuliferum, Ckll. Entomologist, 1898, p. 182. 
Hab. Mzxico: Amecameca (Koebele). 
This is a doubtful Lecanium. It may prove to be an immature state of Hermes 
grandis.
