1917] McGregor—Eight New Mallophaga of the Genus Lipeurus 118 
ous. Temples at first parallel and then rounding convergingly to 
meet, without angles, the nearly straight occiput. Antennal 
bands black, conspicuous, paling just before ocular blotches which 
extend inward and forward as a narrowing bar; ocular bands 
replaced by pale underlying sickle shaped bars; temples mar- 
gined by a black, crenate band which extends paler along the occipi- 
tal margin; excepting the smoky colored, spindle shaped occipital 
signature, the brown cesophageal sclerite and mandibles, the gen- 
eral color is pale. Six prickles and two short hairs along the frontal 
border, a prickle and two short hairs before the trabeculze, a long 
hair from over the eye, two long hairs and four prickles from the 
temples. Antennz very stout, basal segment about equalling 
all others, third segment brownish and with strong, hooked append- 
age, second segment with weak but well defined appendage. 
Thorax one-third again as wide as long. Prothorax somewhat 
trapezoidal, the posterior margin rather strongly convex. Lat- 
eral margins bordered with heavy, black bands from the anterior 
ends of which narrow, fainter underlying bars extend backward 
and inward; a pale blotch occurs at each posterior lateral angle, 
and a small, triangular blotch lies directly behind the occiput. 
A long hair arises at each posterior angle. Metathorax pentagonal 
the hind margin sharply angulated on first abdominal segments 
lateral sides diverging very abruptly. A dark interrupted, sub- 
marginal band extends from the prothorax to the black, pustulated 
blotch at the posterior lateral angle, and a triangular blotch in- 
volves each temple; excepting these markings and an anterior 
median pair of faint blotches, the general color is pale. A spine 
and a short hair at the lateral angles, and five long, pustulated 
hairs on each lateral third of posterior margin. Legs normal, 
brown bordered and banded. 
Abdomen clavate-ovate, widest on fourth segment, contracted 
abrupt at the seventh segment. Segments 1 to 7 inclusive with 
narrow, brownish, lateral plates over-reaching hind end of plate 
next ahead. Segments 1 to 7 each with a chestnut-brown trans- 
verse blotch which are parted on the median line; those of seg- 
ments 1 to 6 with a large hyaline spot at the sides, and in addition 
those of segments 2 to 7 with a small, clear, circular spot at their 
centers. Segments 3 to 8 with hairs at the posterior lateral angles 
as follows: Segment 3, a short hair; segment 4, two long hairs;
