but just inside of the margin there is a row of 
minute glands set close together, that gives the 
margin a crenulated appearance, and inside of this 
there is another row of small glands, fewer in 
number and spaced farther apart. The marginal 
area also bears many small, isolated glands. Near 
the margin there is also a row of long spines, 20 
in number, and on the posterior margin there are 
two similar spines. On the dorsum there are 7 pairs 
of compound wax pores, distributed as follows : 
four pairs on the abdominal region, one pair of 
smaller cnes on the cephalic region, and 2 pairs 
of still smaller placed posteriorly of the large ab- 
dominal pores and on each side of the vasiform 
orifice. 
The vasiform orifice is sub-cordate in outline, 
much wider than long; with the operculum rect- 
angular in shape, and with the caudal margin 
notched on each side, and bearing a pair of stout 
spines. Lingula exserted, elongate, narrowed to- 
wards the posterior extremity, with one indenture 
near middle and another near the extremity on 
each side, from each of which springs a strong 
spine. A pair of spines is also situated at base of 
vasiform orifice. 
The adult female is yellow in color, the com- 
pound eyes being brown. Length of body, from 
head to the posterior extremity of the abdomen, is 
1.660 mm. to 1.830 mm. The antenne are com- 
posed of seven joints, and are about 0.800 mm. 
long. The forewings are 2.275 mm. long and 
1.260 mm. wide. They are hyaline with three dusky 
transverse areas. The hind wings are 1.575 mm. 
long and 0.700 tam. wide. and are usually unmarked. 
The length of the hind tibia is 0.770 mm. the 
length of the basal segment of the tarsus is 0.183 
mm. and that of the distal segment is 0.105 mm. 
The adult male is colored the same as the fe- 
male. The claspers are from 0.700 mm. to 0.725 
mm. long, with the tips strongly curved inward. 
The last abdominal segment is 0.437 mm. long.
