lobes very indistinct, one centrally located very 

 narrow-rod-like, 2 laterals broad, dull pointed, one 

 gland interiorly on each. 



24 (76) Lepidosaphes lasianthi Green. 



on Croton ; Honolulu. Very common. In a letter 

 Mr. Green advises me that our species is distinct 

 from his lasianthi and justifies description of the 

 species under a new name. 



25 (77) Parlatoria myf/ilaspiformis Green. 



on Orchid {Vanda tricolor) Moanalua greenhouses. 

 Also on croton (Ainahau) but this has not yet 

 been definitely determined. 



Except Mdiere otherwise indicated the writer is responsible 

 for identifications. He is indebted to Mr. Fullaway for access 

 to the collection and records in the Hawaii Experiment Station. 

 The first number (53) is a continuation of Mr. Kirkaldy's list 

 in the 1904 Forester.* This list as compared w4th Mr. Kirk- 

 aldy's, shows the substantial increase of 25 species, distributed 

 among no less than 15 genera. This would be very significant 

 had they been arrivals since the last list was published. As a 

 matter of fact, however, Mr. Kirkaldy's lists were but com- 

 pilations of available records and Mr. Koebele, whose reports 

 are the chief source of information, has not made a complete 

 survey of this group since 1897. Even then it is doubtful 

 whether Mr. Koebele recorded other than those of greater or 

 lesser economic importance. That of Pseudococcus aurilanatus, 

 in 1906, is the only definite record we have of a pest coming in 

 during the "rigid regime," i. e., since the late Mr. Craw as- 

 sumed inspection in 1904. The various mango Coccids that 

 were apparently imported shortly before the advent of Mr. 

 Craw, could not have gained admission during his regime. Un- 

 less surreptitiously done no Coccid could be brought into Hono- 

 lulu, and only through the mails to the other post offices. It 

 must be admitted that the post offices are an available and 

 doubtless serious leak in the quarantine against Coccids. But 

 even then they could only come to ns from the V. S., and in 

 this instance a federal quarantine law ])i-o]iibiting interstate
