372 THE COCCIDAE 



of the pygidium of the adult female and even these figures are not 

 every thing to be desired. The custom of Green, Newstead, and 

 Lindinger of figuring the pygidial fringe of one or both of the 

 nymphal stages is an excellent one and will need to be done for 

 all of the species of this tribe before an accurate classification of 

 the species can be made. 



Leonardi recognized three new generic names : TruUifiorinia, 

 for which acaciae Mask, may be taken as the type, Anamefiorinia, 

 for which easuarinae Mask, may be taken as type, and Adisco- 

 fiorinia, for which secreta Green may be taken as tj^pe. Lindinger 

 in 1911 proposed the name Crypthemichionaspis. While he does 

 not describe this genus, he states Anamefiorinia Leon, and TruUi- 

 fiorinia Leon, are synonyms. There are three species included 

 under the genus Crypthemichionaspis, acacia Mask., which may be 

 taken as the type, lidgetti Green, and nigra Lingr. The description 

 of alaeodendri Charm, was not available and could not be placed. 

 The following synopsis, based in the main upon that of Leonardi, 

 will aid in the identification of the species : —
