A single specimen from Carpodacics mexicanus ohscurus and 

 from Anous stolidus (Kahului, Maui Island). 

 Menopon hawaiiensis, sp. nov. (Plate XV, Fig. 2.) 



Female: Body, length i mm. ; width .6 mm.; being thus unusually broad and 

 short for the Menopon type ; fuscous, translucent, with no well defined markings ex- 

 cept the black ocular flecks and the intercoxal lines which show through the body. 



Head, length .21 mm.; width .51 mm.; broad and short; a slight angulation in 

 front, on each side of which a very short hair and one longer hair ; palpi with a long 

 terminal segment extending slightly beyond the rounding front ; two long strong hairs 

 and two shorter weaker hairs on the rounding angle in front of the ocular emargma- 

 tion ; the emargination is slight but distinct ; eye large, nearly divided by a large ocu- 

 lar fleck ; ocular fringe with few spines ; temples projecting narrowly, with four 

 hairs on the rounding margin, two of which are very long, a few short prickles and a 

 few shorter hairs arising on the dorsal surface ; occipital margin broadly concave, a 

 long hair on each side of the median line ; color of head pale fuscous, a darker band 

 across the front deepening where the palpi and mandibles show through the head, 

 ocular band darkening anteriorly ; occipital margin narrowly bordered with pale 

 brown • on the under side of the head there are two strongly chitinized backward- 

 projecting, pointed processes, arising from the labium and these show through the 

 head given the impression of dark occipital bands. 



Prothorax short, with a very long hair and two prickles in the obtuse anterior 

 angle, a series of four long pustulated hairs and four prickles on each side of the 

 rounding lateral and posterior margin ; the transverse chitin bar distinctly pale brown, 

 intercoxal lines showing through distinctly. Mesothorax narrow with posterior angles 

 sharp, with a long hair and two spines in the angle, chitinous bars extending longi- 

 tudinally from the anterior angles across the segment. Metathorax narrow, appearing 

 like the first abdominal segment, a dark chitinous bar extending from the anterior 

 lateral margin of the mesothorax back across the metathorax cutting off" the posterior 

 angles ; a series of short hairs along the posterior margin ; sternal markings consisting 

 of small triangular median blotch with narrow chitinous bars arising laterally and ex- 

 tending forward and outward to the anterior angles of the prothorax ; dark curving 

 intercoxal bands on the mesothorax ; legs translucent, fuscous with distinct brown 



margins. . . 



Abdomen broadly ovate, posterior angles obtuse and slightly projecting with a 

 short spine and from one to two long hairs in the angle ; a series of hairs along the 

 posterior margin of each segment; entire abdomen a darker fuscous than the head or 

 thorax, a narrow transverse band of darker brown across each segment ; last segment 

 broadly rounded with a series of hairs along the posterior margin. 



One female from Chlorodrepanis virens (lao Valley, Maui Island).
