From Oropouche and Port-of-Spain. New to the Island.

The specimen, an adult male, has longer legs than usual, for 

 when the hind limb is carried forward, the tibio-tarsal articula-

DESCRIPTION OP A NEW LECANIUM FROM 

 TRINIDAD. 



By T. D. A. Cocker ell. 

 (From the Entomological Kews, ISOJf page 203-4- ) 



Lecanium urichi, n. sp. 



Red-brown, very shiny, nearly circular, moderately convex, 

 the segments marked on upper surface by black or blackish 

 transverse lines interrupted at regular intervals. Posterior 

 incision nearly 1 mm. long, with contiguous sides. The two anal 

 plates together forming a practically equilateral diamond-shaped 

 quadrangle length 4§ mm., breadth 4} mm., alt nearly 2|- mm 



I found no trace of legs or antennae after boiling in soda, 

 nor could I detect them by examining the underside of an 

 untreated specimen with a lens. The mouth parts were distinct, 

 as usual. The lateral incisions are very deep and large, bulbous, 

 with the margin of the bulb thickened and appearing dark
