greatly, extended cephalad, notauli very shallow and not strongly 

 converging posteriorly; surface shagreened, posterior median 

 area plane and rugulose. Scutellum anteriorly with six small 

 fovesB, median carina much stronger than the others; posterior 

 disk of scutellum shagreened. Metanotum shallowly rugose and 

 and with a strong complete median carina; disk of metapleura 

 rugose; spiracle ovate and with an unusually straight, longitu- 

 dinal, sutural carina passing beneath it; disk of mesopleura ir- 

 regularly rugose and with a broad, oblique, rugose depression 

 below. 



Abdomen slightly shorter than head and thorax together, 

 sessile, broadest on second and third segments, remaining seg- 

 ments, extended, as long as third segment and one half of second 

 segment together, smooth, shagreened, and shining ; first tergite 

 longer than its apical width, basal width slightly greater than 

 half the apical; second tergite slightly shorter than first, little 

 broadened apically, length three fourths of apical width; third 

 tergite about three fourths the length of second, its length sub- 

 equal to half its apical width; first, second, and third tergites 

 coarsely, but shallowly and completely, longitudinally striate; 

 second suture broadly curved, strongly and broadly impressed, 

 and not connate; remaining sutures normal; a strong median 

 carina on first and second tergites and on basal three fourths 

 of third. 



Stigma of medium size, its length about five times its width, 

 radius inserted slightly before the middle; first abscissa of 

 radius two thirds length of second; second cubital cell one and 

 one-half times as long as broad, gradually narrowed apically; 

 first transverse cubitus oblique, second perpendicular and de- 

 colored ; recurrent vein entering first cubital cell a distance from 

 apex a little less than length of first abscissa of radius, but equal- 

 ing second transverse cubitus, intervening vein decolored ; parallel 

 vein inserted at lower fourth and broadly curved before inser- 

 tion; submedian cell much longer than median; radial vein in 

 hind wings entirely obsolete; nervellus straight, oblique, and 

 slightly swollen at middle.

Ehogas (Aleiodes) simillimus sp. nov. 



Stramineous; antennae slightly darker apically; on each side 

 of body a straight, narrow, piceous stripe, running from apex 

 of pronotum to end of lateral margin of first tergite, passing 

 beneath wings and along lateral margins of metanotum. Wings
