PAPERS ON COCCID.E OR SCALE INSECTS. 



CATALOGUE OF EECEIfTLY DESCRIBED COCCIDiE— III. 



By E. R. Sasscer, Scientific Assistant. 



Since the publication, December 22, 1909, of Tech. Ser. 16, Part III, 

 "Catalogue of Recently Described Coccidee — II," by Mr. J. G.Sanders, 

 3 new subgenera, 98 new species, and 5 new varieties have been 

 recorded by workers on scale insects. In all, some 23 new genera, 9 

 new subgenera, 430 new species, and 41 new varieties have been 

 recorded from various quarters of the globe since the publication of 

 Mrs. Fernald's valuable contribution in 1903. 



Owing to the large amount of literature relating to entomology 

 which is published daily and to the fact that some entomologists 

 describe species in periodicals which do not relate to insect life, it 

 is the earnest request of the writer that all workers on Coccidfe send to 

 the Bureau of Entomology separates of their papers and as far as pos- 

 sible any available material. This list is believed to be fairly com- 

 plete up to March, 1911, and any corrections or omissions are solicited 

 from coworkers. 



In examining the voluminous literature the writer was greatly 

 assisted by Miss Mabel Colcord, librarian of the bureau, and he is 

 equally indebted to Prof. T. D. A. CockereJl for his many valuable 

 suggestions. 



All species marked with an asterisk are represented in the National 

 Collection of Coccidse.
