Scale of Male. — Length about .8 mm.; slender, convex; color grayish 

 white. 



Egg. — Length about 2 mm.; oval; pale in color. 



Found by the author on bamboo, Hikosan, in Kiushiu, 

 and named in honor of Mr. G. A. Coleman of Stanford 

 University. 



This new species is allied to C. bambuscB Ckll., but is 

 distinguished from it by having a rather short and very 

 broad female scale, with many ridges on the dorsal aspect, 

 as in a certain mollusca. There is also a difference in the 

 arrangement of the gland-spines and in the shape of the 

 plates. 



Prof. R. A. Cooley of Montana Agricultural Station, 

 who kindly examined my specimens, writes as follows: — 



"The specimens you sent me were rather troublesome. I made several 

 attempts at determining them and even went so far as to write you a letter 

 which I later withheld. I have again reviewed the matter to-day [Nov. 6, 

 I 901] and after an extended comparison feel sure that your species is a new 

 one. 



"It is near C. bambusce Ckll., and is also near C. doxyli Mask. 



" While we cannot do better than to place it in the genus Chionaspis aX. 

 present, it is certain that it does not belong to Chionaspis proper. ' '
