20 PSYCHE [February 



The typical E. magnolianun was found in California under circumstances 

 indicating that it was imported from Japan. No doubt E. hortensiae reached France 

 from the Orient, and it is not native anywhere in Europe. Of the native French 

 species, the nearest to it is Eulecanium genistae (Signoret). 



These forms are placed in Eulecanium, but they show a good deal of resem- 

 blance to Calymnatus. 



Eulecanium ciliatum Douglas, var. a. 



Marchal No. 12. Collected in France in 1900 (exact locality not stated). 



Rather large, moderately convex, dark ferruginous, with a prominent but very broad 

 and blunt longitudinal keel ; sides deeply and coarsely pitted. 

 Two scales measure thus : — long. 6i, lat. 5, alt. 3 mm. 



long. 5, lat. 4, alt. 25 mm. 

 Anterior leg: femur + trochanter, 162; tibia, 114; tarsus, 78. 

 Antennae 6-jointed ; joints : (i.) 36, (2.) 30, (3.) 98, (4.) 21, (5.) 18, (6.) 36. 



This species is new to France ; it was sent as doubtful E. robiniarum^ which it 

 evidently is not. In the structure of the scale, with the prominent long smooth 

 dorsal area, limited on either side by pits, E. ci/iatinn exactly resembles the 

 American E. canadcnse?iud kansasense, which are well figured by Hunter in Kan- 

 sas univ. quarterly, April, 1899, PI. xiv. 



The antennae of the present insect (but not the scale) agree with E. websteri, 

 kingii, and armeniaaim, and nearly with tarsale. The antennae also resemble quite 

 closely those of E. rosae (but joint 2 is too short), prniiasfri, and kansasense (but 

 joint 3 is too long), 



Eulecanium genevense var. marchali, 7'ar. nov. 



On Rosa ; Fontenay (Seine) ; Marchal No. 3. 



Light ferruginous ; easily known from E. rufulum by its somewhat larger size, more shin- 

 ing surface, and deeply pitted sides. There is no distinct longitudinal keel. Long. 4I, lat. 3I, 

 alt. 3 mm. After boiling in liquor potassae tlie skin becomes nearly clear, but the area 

 around the anal lobes remains brown. The antennae are 7- to 8-jointed (one specimen has the 

 left antenna with 7, and the right with 8 joints), short and rather stout, without the long 

 bristles of E. rubi. The tessellation of the skin is very distinct in places. 

 Anterior leg: femur -}- trochanter, 150; tibia, 90; tarsus, 78.
