rows, exact number and arrangement not discernible; other sorts of 
pores, if present, not recognizable; with a collar of pores around anal 
opening; derm dorsally with numerous, but not clustered, small tuber- 
cles, circular in outline and much flattened, with a constricted base 
as observed in section, these occurring nearly uniformly over the 
whole dorsal surface, except for a narrow marginal strip; laterally 
with dense clusters of longer, more nearly finger-like tubercles, these 
clusters almost continuous in the abdominal region, the ventral sur- 
face with a fringe of still longer tubercles, each constricted about 
the middle, most of ventral surface, as far as can be determined, with- 
out any such structures; dorsally and laterally, in addition to the 
knob-like protuberances, with a few longitudinal rows of slender 
setae; structure of anal tube not definitely determinable; ventral 
cicatrices not discernible. 
AULOICERYA, new genus.’ 
Monophlebine coccids, related to Icerya, but the adult female naked, 
or nearly so, dorsally, not secreting an ovisac, but with the whole 
under side somewhat invaginated in a longitudinal groove, the mar- 
gins of the body and this cavity bearing more or less dense white 
powdery wax secretion; body oval, derm more or less chitinized 
above, membranous in ventral cavity; antennae normal, 10—11-seg- 
mented, legs normal; body margin bearing scattered large setae and 
multilocular disk pores of two or three sorts, some of these most 
abundant along body margin, but not crowded into a dense porifer- 
ous band as in Jcerya; with the usual thoracic spiracles, and with 
three pairs of posterior abdominal spiracles; anal tube simple, ventral 
cicatrices present, probably three in number. Larva, in general, 
similar to that of Zcerya, but with the dorsal setae strongly devel- 
oped and much more conspicuous than in the other genus; antennae 
6-segmented, the terminal slightly enlarged; legs normal, slender, 
claw with denticle at apex and with digitules extending slightly 
beyond apex of claw and faintly knobbed: body with two or three 
pairs of long apical setae, at least one of these fully as long as body; 
anal tube with collar of disk pores around opening. 
The genus is distinguished chiefly by the characteristic appear- 
ance of the adult female and by the conspicuous enlargement of the 
dorsal setae of the larva. f
