margins of second and third abdominal segments. Marginal semi-lunar pores prom- 
inent, 9 on each side, one median; first 2 on each side subtend 2 squames, remain- 
der not as wide as 2, but wider than 1 squame. A submarginal series of dorsal 
oval pores more numerous and thickly placed near base of submarginal area of 
pygidium. Circumgenital glands in 4 groups of which the posterior pair contain 
each 5 openings and the anterior 6, This is quite constant. Anal orifice sub- 
marginal on dorsum. 
Adult male not known. 
Eggs (PI. 111, fig. 3) dark purple 0.28 millimeter long and 0.15 millimeter wide, 
placed transversely beneath scale. 
Habitat: Philippines, Manila (Banks Coll.). 
On upper surface of leaves of Cocus nucifera L. 
Type: No. 10105 in Entomological Collection, BUREAU OF SCIENCE, Manila, P. I. 
This species is most closely related to Parlatoria proteus Curt., but also 
resembles P. pergandii Comst., from which it differs in the color of the 
seale, P. pergandii Comst. being of a light yellow, transparent hue, while 
P. greeni n. sp. is slate color. The fourth lateral (first rudimentary) 
lobes are more developed and have dentate margins and a sharp terminal 
cusp. The color of the second pellicle is constant and characteristic. 
This species is named in honor of my fried, Prof. E. Ernest Green, 
Government Entomologist of Ceylon, whose indefatigable labors in the 
study of the Coccide are known and appreciated in all parts of the world.

Type: salicis. 
Female puparium (PI. IV, fig. 1) snow-white, 2.35—2.50 millimeters long, 1.15- 
1.23 millimeters wide. Considerably dilated posteriorly; narrow anteriorly, the 
sectionary area usually reaching middle of second pellicle, but sometimes to its 
anterior margin. Surface smooth, somewhat glabrous and showing only transverse 
lines of growth. Pellicles pale, fulvous, second slightly darker posteriorly. First 
pellicle, one-half the length and one-third the width of second, which it overlaps for 
one-half its own length. An almost imperceptible carina on second pellicle. 
Length of second pellicle 0.77 millimeter. 
Male puparium (PI. IV, fig. 2) snow-white, 0.85—0.90 millimeter long, 0.38 milli- 
meter wide, with ill-defined median and lateral carine. Surface woolly. Pellicle 
one-third length of puparium and of a very pale-fulvous. 
Adult female (PI. IV, fig. 3) length 1.25 to 1.75 millimeters, width 0.65 to 
0.80 millimeter; pale-yellow, pygidium with brownish tinge posteriorly. Form, 
elongate oval. Antenne with basal knob, cuspid internally; apical joint stout, 
fleshy, quite similar in shape and size to larger pygidial squames, submarginal, 
on anterior part of head. Entire surface of body minutely palpillate. Dorsum, 
posterior to a transverse line through apex of rostrum, marked by 2 submedian 
subparallel, linear stomata diverging posteriorly. Abdominal segments acutely 
lobed (Pl. IV, Fig. 3). Anterior spiracles having well-defined parastigmatic 
glands and removed laterally from apex of rostrum a distance equal to width of 
latter at base. Posterior spiracles slightly smaller than anterior and placed a
