The following paper*, which had been sent to the secretary, were 

 read by title: 



NOTES FROM NEW MEXICO AND ARIZONA. 



By T. D. A. Cockehell. East La* Vegas, X. Mex. 



Nothing especially remarkable has occurred in the held of economic 

 entomology during the past year or two In this part of the country, 

 but the following records arc not without interest. 



COC'CID.E. 



Parlatoria hlanchardi (Targ.). — Professor Forbes (Johnson, Fumi- 

 gation Methods, p. 229) has recorded the fumigation of about 4i><» 

 date-palm sucker- infested with Parlatoria. lie determined, experi- 

 mentally, that palms would stand a strong dose, and accordingly treated 

 all those received at Tempe, Ariz., for the date-palm orchard of the Ari- 

 zona experiment station. In the spring of the present year I inspected 

 all the-*' palm- and found that the Parlatoria had been totally destroyed. 

 Of course, there are parts of the palms which can not be examined 

 without pulling them to pieces, but I feel quite sure that the Parlatoria 

 would l>e in evidence upon the visible parts by this time if any had 

 survived. On one palm I found a small quantity of Phomi 

 marlatti. Ckll., alive and healthy.
