This species, according to Mr. McGregor's notes, is gregar- 

 ious and is attended by black ants of which a number have been 

 received. Professor Wheeler determines these ants as the same 

 species [Polyrhachis (Myrmhopla) dives Smith] as those found 

 with Tricentrus fairmairei Stal. 



Gargara nitidipennis Funkh. 



Add: Habitat. — Luzon, Laguna Province, Paete. Panay, 

 Antique Province, Culasi. (McGregor.) 



One male and eight females taken at Paete on March 29, 1917, 

 and one female taken at Culasi on May 29, 1918. 



This species shows more variation in size than any other spe- 

 cies from the Islands, but I can find no specific differences be- 

 tween the large and the small forms. 



Gargara nigrofasciata Stal. 



Add : Habitat. — Luzon, Laguna Province, Paete (McGregor) . 



Three males and one female from Paete. It has previously 

 been recorded 6 that this species also shows considerable varia- 

 tion. The specimens from Paete are larger and darker than the 

 type described by Stal, but agree with specimens from Minda- 

 nao collected by Professor Baker. 7 



Gargara tuberculata Funkh. 



Add: Habitat. — Luzon, Manila (McGregor) . 

 One female collected at Manila on April 5, 1918. 



Gargara pygmaea Walk. 



Add: Habitat. — Panay, Antique Province, Culasi (Mc- 

 Gregor) . 

 Host. — Acalypha stipulacea Klotz. . 

 One female taken at Culasi, May 27, 1918, on shoots from a 

 stub of Acalypha stipulacea. 



Gargara rugonervosa Funkh. 



Add: Habitat. — Panay, Antique Province, Culasi (Mc- 

 Gregor) . 

 Host. — Croton leiophyllus Muell. ; Acalypha stipula- 

 cea Klotz. 

 One male taken May 18, 1918, on Croton leiophyllus; and an- 

 other male taken May 27, 1918, on Acalypha stipulacea. Both 

 specimens are from Culasi.
