winged species examined, 1 1 had only one group of pores on each 

 wing, 21 had two groups on each wing, 12 had three groups on each 

 wing (C, 2, J, and //), and 3 had four groups on each wing. The

number of pores on a pair of wings ranged from 130 to 982. The 

 number of pores counted on all six legs of an individual ranged from 

 49 to 341. There were usually two groups of pores on each trochanter 

 (fig. 9, 5 and 6). Sometimes a pore was found at the proximal end of
