"Scale I 1-2 to 2 mm in diameter, round; exuviae sul)- 

 central, orange red, covered by a white secretion." 



An examination of a number of specimens of this form 

 received through the kindness of Mr. Hunter, show it to differ 

 from A. Jei'iialdi in the following characters: Inner chitinous 

 processes of first incision more nearly equal, but inner one 

 always largest; median lobes apparently more notched; 

 second lobes smaller and with more of a tendency to indent- 

 ing on outer margin; two pairs of spines from second lobe 

 instead of one, Mr. Huntcr gives the glands as follows: 

 median, two to six; cephalolateral, ten to twelve; caudo- 

 lateral, five to eight. 



Habitat: Maple, at Lawrence, Kan. (Hunter) and at 

 Manhattan, Ivan. (Parrott).

Female scale white or light gray, approximately round, 

 2 mm. in diameter. Exuviae covered by a thin film, dark 

 orange when uncovered, laige, sub-marginal in .position. 

 Male scale smaller, oblong, about i 1-3 mm. in length, 

 exuviae near cephalic end.

♦According to Parrott the insects occurring on Juneberry vary considerablv but 

 differ in no tangible character from /ernaWi. 



+S. J. Hunter in Kan. Univ. Quarterly, Vol. VlII.p. 9. Jan. 1899, describes a variety 

 of this species but gives it no name. Its principal differential characters may be 

 summarized as follows: Second lobe with three notches on lateral margin: a chain- 

 like incision extending cephalad from each incision. Ventral grouped glands: 

 median, three to live; cephalolalerals, nine to eleven; caudolaterals, nine to ten.
