little before middle of body, about equidistant from each other and from the 
margin. Pygidium (PI. IV, fig. 4) with circumgenital area marked by a horse- 
shoe of snow-white secretion, open posteriorly. Median lobes projecting one-third 
their length from an obtuse posterior notch; their interior margins minutely 
dentate (usually 5 dentations). External cusp rounded; laterad of this a small 
tooth; a pair of spines between median lobes. Exterior to median lobe a spinose 
squame, a marginal pore, 2 lateral lobes, the larger dentate laterally, and their 
margins rounded. Exterior to lateral lobes, a squame, 2 marginal pores; on 
dentations of margin, a squame, 2 marginal pores, a squame, 2 marginal pores, a 
squame, a marginal pore and 6 squames, latter on third abdominal segment. 
Segmental areas quite well defined by plications and series of dorsal pores, the 
latter forming on each side 4 distinct series as follows: On second abdominal seg- 
ment 8 submarginal; on third, 4 submedian and 8 submarginal; on fourth, 3 sub- 
median and 5 submarginal; on pygidium, 2 submedian, 5 submarginal and 1 
exterior to anterior group of circumgenital glands. Cylindrical ducts short and 
stout. Circumgenital glands arranged in 5 groups, the median with 8, the 
anterior lateral with 14-19 and the posterior with 14-16 openings. Anal opening 
directly above genital—i. e., both lie in same vertical plane. 
Adult male not known. 
Eggs pale-yellow 0.30 millimeter long and 0.15 millimeter wide. Plainly visible 
through body wall of female. 
Larve (PI. IV, fig. 5) pale-yellow, 0.40 millimeter long upon emerging from 
egg.

Type: conchiformis=ulmi. 
Female puparium (PI. V, fig. 1) 2.50-2.65 millimeters long, 0.60—0.75 millimeter 
wide; very long and narrow, with the sides gradually diverging posteriorly and 
well rounded dorsally; clear, red-brown, with lighter to whitish margins; trans- 
verse striz separated into groups by more pronounced carine. First pellicle 
broadly oval, yellow-ochraceous, with broad, median carina and 2 waxy, anterior 
horn-like projections; second pellicle slightly darker, more elongate, narrowing 
abruptly and acutely posteriorly, hind margin and an anal patch light ochraceous, 
with a transverse discal carina and a decided spine on margin of second abdominal 
segment. 
Male puparium (PI. V, fig. 2) 1.45 millimeters long, 0.35 millimeter wide, 
narrow anteriorly and widening behind; posterior margin subcircular. Pale, 
yellow-brown anterior, waxy, horn-like projections lacking; posterior and lateral 
margins narrowly white; a transverse, pre-anal, thin portion of scale marking 
portion which may be elevated for escape of adult male. 
Adult female (PI. V, fig. 5) 0.90-0.95 millimeter long, 0.35 millimeter wide, of 
a light-yellow, almost white; the anterior extremity slightly narrower, widest 
part just anterior to pygidium. Antenne halfway between front margin and 
base of rostrum and having each an axillary spine mediad, nearly equal to them
