 Head verj^ little immersed in first thoracic segment, large, subtrian- 

 gular, anterior margin pointed with sid(\s slightly 

 sinuate. Ej^es situated at extreme post -lateral 

 margins, almost obscure. First pair of antennse, 

 with joints dilated, issuing close 

 together, eight articulate. Sec- 

 ond pair of antenns\3 slender, 

 extending a little beyond poste- 

 rior margin of lirst thoracic seg- 

 ment; fourteen jointed. 



Thoracic segments subequal in length. 

 Abdomen not at all innnersed. All the segments fig. i3.-abdomen of 

 visible and equal in width and length. Terminal vkrsa. 

 segment subtriangular with apex round, impressed 

 at base, equal in length to first five segments taken together. Uro- 

 poda a little longer than apex of terminal segment, branches similar 

 in shape, oar-like, and of e(iual length. 



Legs increasing in length from first to seventh pair. 

 Color yellowish brown. 



the genus Anilocra. Schicedte and Meinert have placed Pediculus mar'mus Rontlelet in 

 tlie synonymy of Amlocra jjkysodes Linnaeus, and following their authority, and Nich- 

 olson's observation on the close resemblance of his species with Pediculns marinus, I 

 would refer Puu de Sarde to this genus. Whether or not it is identical with A. lati- 

 (•(tuda, common in the West Indies, I am unable to determine from the description.
