width of head, 2.5-2.7 mm.; width of pronotum, 2.8 mm. 
Described from three soldiers in the Museum of Compara- 
tive Zoology, Cambridge, Mass., in a vial with label “Hawaiian 
Islands.” This soldier is believed from its size, etc., to be the 
same species as Neotermes connexus, var. major Snyder, de- 
scribed from dealated adults from Kaiwiki, Hawaii. If so, it 
is a valid species, not a variety; if not, it is a new species. Two 
of these specimens from which the description was made are 
in the Museum of Comparative Zoology, Cambridge, Mass., the 
other is in the U. S. National Museum, Washington, D. C.
