opening. In general appearance it looks like Galmnno. affitiis, but 

 there is no trace of wings. 



Length .6 mm. 



One specimen from Punta Gorda, April. 



I use the genus Ercmccus for Oppia and Orihatnla of Berlese. 



Liacarus concolor Banks. 



Several specimens from Punta Gorda, April, This species has about 

 20 or 24 short hairs on dorsum of abdomen, arranged in about 4 longi- 

 tudinal rows. There is a short oblique ridge above the posterior cox£e 

 extending up to cephalothorax. 



Oribata floridana Banks. 



A few specimens, the types, from Punta Gorda; it was described 

 under the genus Bclha. The type of this genus is miknown, but it 

 must be very similar to the type of Damceus, which is congeneric 

 with the type of Oribata. In place of the Oribota of authors I use 

 the next name, Galumna. Notaspis, by the process of elimination, 

 rests upon that genus for which Oudemans has proposed the name 

 of Kochia. I deplore greatly the transference of the name Oribata, 

 but it is a perfectlj^ plain case; and since several European authors 

 have adopted it, I accept it for the sake of uniformity. 



Neoliodes concentricus Say. '• 



A few specimens from Runnymede, Nov., and Enterprise. 



Neoliodes floridensis Banks. 



A number of examples from Palm Beach, and Lake Worth, in March. 



TYROGLYPHID^. 

 Tyroglyphus sp. 



I have seen a species taken by Hubbard among scale insects on the 

 orange trees. It is, I think, undescribed. 



ERIOPHYIDiE. 

 Iriophyes oleiovorus Ashmead. 



The rust mite of the orange occurs commonly in most sections of 

 Elorida.
