  When 
  Mr. 
  Jones 
  described 
  bis 
  L. 
  setarice 
  I 
  thought 
  it 
  

   would 
  probably 
  be 
  the 
  same 
  as 
  the 
  species 
  described 
  by 
  

   Dr. 
  Jablonowski 
  eighteen 
  years 
  previously 
  from 
  Armenia 
  

   and 
  Hungary, 
  but 
  it 
  seems 
  to 
  be 
  a 
  rare 
  species 
  and 
  I 
  had 
  

   not 
  then 
  seen 
  examples. 
  I 
  have 
  now 
  before 
  me 
  several 
  females 
  

   and 
  one 
  male 
  of 
  a 
  Limothrips 
  collected 
  by 
  Dr. 
  Anton 
  Krausse, 
  

   at 
  Sorgono, 
  Sardinia, 
  in 
  1913, 
  which 
  agree 
  in 
  every 
  detail 
  

   with 
  Jones's 
  description 
  and 
  figures, 
  though 
  darker 
  in 
  colour, 
  

   and 
  which 
  I 
  have 
  little 
  doubt 
  are 
  referable 
  to 
  Limothrips 
  anguli- 
  

   cornis. 
  Dr. 
  Jablonowski 
  does 
  not 
  figure 
  the 
  stout 
  terminal 
  

   spines, 
  nor 
  does 
  his 
  figure 
  of 
  the 
  ch^etotaxy 
  of 
  the 
  fore-wing 
  

   agree, 
  but 
  we 
  see 
  exactly 
  similar 
  discrepancies 
  in 
  his 
  figures 
  

   of 
  Limothrips 
  cerealiuni 
  {op. 
  cit.
