Mr. R. S. Bagnall on neio Thysanoptera. 409 



Antennae about 2*4 times the length of the head ; relative 

 lengths o£ joints 3 to 8 approximately : — 31 : 29 : 28 : 24 : 

 19 : 14. 



Protiiorax about twice as broad as long ; set£e at posterior 

 angles widely spaced, somewhat short and stout ; the outer 

 longer than the inner, about 0*4 the length of the prothorax. 



Tube short and stout, about 0*9 as long as the head ; 1*45 

 times as long as broad at base, and 0*45 as broad at tip as at 

 base; terminal bristles light coloured, about 0"7 the length 

 of the tube. 



Very closely allied to hrevicollis, but at once recognized by 

 the coloration of the body and the antennae.

 generic position). 



I have long been aware of the identity of the Madeiran 

 Leptothrips Jlavicornis and the Javanese L. longitubus with 

 Marchal's Phlceothrips Jicorum from Algeria, and I was 

 surprised that the above were not included in Hood's lengthy 

 list of synonyms in Insecutor Inscitice Menstruus (1912, i. 

 p. 153). I was under the mistaken impression, however, 

 liiat I had published a note on the synonymy, and now rectify 

 the omission.
