34. Mytilaspis concolor, Ckll.* 
From M. albus var. concolor—now considered a good species— 
his Prospalta auranti is given by Howard (Reyvis. p. 41) from North 
America. 
35. Mytilaspis eucalypti, Crawf.* 
This species is attacked in Australia by the same parasite as 
the last. 
36. Hriopeltes lichtensteinit, Sign.* 
Gaulle (Cat. 99) gives this species, under the genus Hriophorus, 
as destroyed by Sceptrophorus cyanifrons, Dalm., in France. 
37. Hriopeltes festuce, Fonse. 
The same author brings forward (p. 106) Aphelinus abdomi- 
nalis, Dalm. (nee Nees) as a parasite of Coccus festuce, but later 
(p.97) simply instances Hetroma rufum, Dalm. (lindus, Walk.) 
and Beocharis pascuorum, Mayr., as attacking Coccids on grasses. 
38. CEROPLASTES. 
Unspecified members of this genus are said by Ashmead to 
be attacked by Asteropeus primus, How., in Mexico (p. 405), and 
Aphycus mexicanus, How. (p. 887 et Revis. Aphel. 1895, p. 22). 
39. Ceroplastes rusci, Linn.* 
C. artemisia, Riley (et ? Rossi) is destroyed by Aphycus cero- 
plastis, How., according to that author (Descr. N. Am. Chal. 1885, 
<8). 
: 40. Ceroplastes cerripediformis, Comst.* 
The parasite of this species is Aphycus mexicanus, in North 
America (Ashm. 1900, p. 387). 
41. Ceroplastes actiniformis, Green.* 
Howard records (Proc. U.S. Nat. Museum, 1896, p. 6338) 
this as the host of Coccophagus orientalis in Ceylon. 
42. Vinsonia stellifera, Westw. 
And, in like manner (p. 639), Anicetus ceylonensis, How., 
preys upon this species.
