302 Anomatococcus. 
ANOMALOCOCCUS. 
Anomaltococcus, Green, Ent. Mo. Mag., Vol. XXXVIII. p. 260 (1902). 
Insects naked or coated with waxy powder. Antennz well developed. 
Limbs wanting. Mentum monomerous. Stigmatic spines present in larval 
and nymphal stages. Paired dorsal glands of the shape of double flasks, 
united by their bases. Cribriform plates numerous. Anal aperture enclosed 
between two (anterior and posterior) semicircular plates. Anal ring setiferous. 
Male puparium similar to that of Lecaniodiaspis. 
Adult male with well-developed halteres. 
Founded upon a single species inhabiting shelters constructed by an arboreal 
ant. It is probable that the protection afforded by this habitat has led to the 
suppression of the covering test usual to members of the sub-family.
