Genus ANOMALOCOCCUS Green 
Anomalococcus multipori sp. nov. Plate ay ey os 
Adult female—Occurring on the stems of the host, beneath 
the cartons or sheds of some species of ant; inclosed in a rather 
dark brownish or reddish sac, which is irregular in shape, 
circular to oval, usually broader behind, somewhat convex, 
typically with rounded, clear, shining, median longitudinal ridge, 
bordered on each side by a pitted longitudinal groove of varying 
distinctness, all the surface except the median ridge covered over 
with white wax, which becomes thick and almost platelike along 
the margin, while varying in thickness in different spots dorsally ; 
the sack itself homogeneous, tough, but fracturing when torn or 
broken, translucent, with a nearly circular to slitlike opening 
dorsally at the posterior end of the median ridge, and the latter 
sometimes broken into; the inclosed insect much wrinkled and 
shriveled, strongly convex medially, but flattened along the body 
margins, almost completely filling the sac, but probably shrink- 
ing very decidedly on the birth of the young; light brown, but 
mottled with piceous, and otherwise discolored. 
Body of adult female—Maximum length mounted on a slide, 
a little more than 2 millimeters; irregularly broad oval; maxi- 
mum width, nearly 2 millimeters, most individuals somewhat 
smaller; antennz 6- to 8-segmented, the lengths of the different 
segments quite variable, the measurements in microns as follows:
