I have long been aware of the identity of the Madeirair 

 Leptothrips fiavicornis and the Javanese L. longituius with 

 Marchal's F liloeothrips jicoruvi from Algeria, and I was 

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

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

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

 that 1 had published a note on the synonyujy, and now rectify 

 the OQiission.
