ParJatoria Proteus, Curtis, Europe, 1843. Occurs in N. America {Comstock, 

 1883) and Demerara (?), on Croion ; from specimens lately received by me. 



Fiorinia camellice, Comstock, N. America, 1883. Occurs in Australia {Mas- 

 Jcell, 1891). 



Lecanium coffecB, Walker, Ceylon, 1852. Occurs in Fiji. Very injurious to 

 coffee plants. L. depressum, Targioni, Europe, 1867. Occurs in New Zealand 

 (Maskell, 1878). L. hemisphcericum, Targioni, Europe, 1867. Occurs in New 

 Zealand {Haskell, 1884). L. hesperidum, Linne, Europe, 1735. Occurs in N. 

 America {Comstock, 1880), New Zealand {Maskell, 1878), Australia, and probably 

 many other countries. Very injurious. L. hibernaculorum, Boisduval, Europe, 

 1867. Occurs in New Zealand {Maskell, 1878). L. lauri, Boisduval, Europe, 1867. 

 Occurs in New Zealand and Australia (probably). Mr. Douglas, in the Ent. Mo. 

 Mag. for September, 1891, points out the very minute anatomical characters separa- 

 ting this from L. hesperidum, for which it has doubtless been very frequently 

 mistaken. In j urious. L. maculatum, Signoret, Europe, 1873. Occurs in New Zealand 

 {Maskell, 1878). L, mori, Signoret, Europe, 1873. Occurs in New Zealand, rarely 

 {Maskell, 1884). An insect which has lately appeared in the same country on 

 grape vines and other fruit trees may, perhaps, turn out to be this species. L. olea, 

 Bernard, Europe, 1782. Occurs in N. America {Comstock, 1880) and New Zealand 

 {Maskell, 1884). Very injurious. L. rib is, Fitch, N, America, 1859. Occurs in

I repeat that the foregoing list contains only species which have 

 been personally observed by me. Many others {e. g., Gossyparia 

 ulmi, Geoffroy, 1764) have doubtless migrated from Europe to N. 

 America and elsewhere ; but 1 have not seen them myself.
