Some New or Little Known Aleyrodidae from 



Connecticut. — III. * 



By W. E. Britton. 



(Plates XII, XIII.) 



I wish to call attention to an error that has appeared in a 

 previous paper of mine. In writing- of Alcyrodcs mori Quaint- 

 ance (see ENTOMOLOGICAL Xews. Vol. XVII, p. 129), I 

 made the statement that "Morrill described a subspecies 

 metadata (Psyche, Vol. X, p. 81, 1903), which differed from 

 mori in the adult stage by having a bright yellow body." As 

 a matter of fact mori has the bright yellow body, and the body 

 of the subspecies maculata is white with black markings. 



In corresponding with Dr. Morrill, I am now convinced that 

 the specimens taken in Connecticut represent his subspecies 

 maculata instead of the type, which, according to his observa- 

 tions, is much more limited in range than maculata. 



Aleyrodes coryli sp. nov. 



Egg. — Unknown. 



Larva. — Oval in shape, rather more than two-thirds as broad as 

 long, and of light yellowish color. Margin and vasiform orifice darker 

 yellow than other portion. Margin bears short, slightly curved glassy 

 wax rods, and a pair of short incurved hairs at caudal extremity. 

 The dorsum bears no wax rods or secretions of any kind. 



Pupa Case. — Length from .65 to .74 mm. ; greatest breadth .38 to 

 .47 mm. Shape broadly oval, slightly constricted cephalad of the 

 middle, with the posterior slightly more pointed than the anterior 

 extremity. Color of pupa light greenish yellow, empty pupa skins 

 white. Raised from surface of leaf by a vertically striated wall of 

 wax about 134 P- high. Dorsum slightly convex, furrowed transversely 

 according to adult segmentation. Marginal area radially and deeply 

 corrugated or wrinkled. Margin finely crenulate. Six pairs of straight 

 or slightly curved upright wax rods from 200 /* to 230 M long are 

 borne upon the dorsum a short distance from the margin; one pair 

 each is borne at the cephalic and caudal extremities, the latter pair 

 being closer together than the former; the other four pairs are 

 nearly equidistant from each other, but are slightly nearer the cephalic 

 pair than the caudal pair. The other pairs of slightly shorter rods 

 are situated as follows: One pair on last thoracic segment, just in
