A Recently Described Psyllid from East Africa 



(Hemip.). 



By D. L. CRAWFORD, Department of Entomology, Cornell 

 University, Ithaca, New York. 



Specimens of an interesting Psyllid affecting fig trees in 

 East Africa, submitted to the writer by Dr. L. O. Howard for 

 determination, prove to be identical with a species recently 

 described by Robert Newstead, from Nyasaland. A new 

 genus, Pseuderiopsylla, was erected by Newstead for the spe- 

 cies, which he called nyasae n. sp. There is a very close re- 

 semblance between this African species and a species described 

 earlier, from the Island of Formosa, by Kuwayama. The 

 relationship is so close, moreover, that the two species cannot 

 be considered as generically distinct. The description of 

 Macrohomotoma Kuwayama was apparently overlooked by 

 Newstead, for otherwise a new genus would not have been 

 erected. Pseuderiopsylla Newstead may, therefore, be con- 

 sidered a synonym of Macrohomototna Kuwayama.
