but continued beyond and present between apical setae, at least one and a half 

 times as numerous as 8-shaped pores of nearer row ; disk pores among the small 

 multilocular pores and nearly or quite as numerous as those, present between 

 apical setae and also around anal opening. 



Dorsal surface : Minute 8-shaped and disk pores fairly numerous ; tubular ducts 

 40 /J. long. 



Ventral surface : Antenna oblong, with 2 very short setae and 2 longer than 

 diameter of antenua ; beak with 2 pairs of setae ; spiracle with bar fairly broad, 

 derm outside opening slightly sunken, and containing a group of 9-14 small 

 multilocular pores, an irregularly double row of similar pores extending from 

 spiracle to body margin, a total of 45-55 in group and row combined, the major- 

 ity of these pores distinctly smaller than the marginal multilocular pores ; mul- 

 tilocular pores on abdomen totaling approximately 368 and having 10-14 loculi, 

 their arrangement unusual, the posterior ones in a longitudinal median group, 

 the others in 5 transverse, semicircular bands in lateral area and a few some- 

 times in median area, posterior group apparently with 62 pores, next with about 

 71, next with 75, next with 69, next with 56, and anterior group with 35; 10-13 

 dark-rimmed 8-shaped pores each side of mouth parts, rather numerous on 

 anterior half, less numerous near posterior end, and these arranged in trans- 

 verse rows ; submarginal 8-shaped pores in a single row, sometimes rather 

 crowded near posterior end, terminating near the posterior group of multilocular 

 pores, nearly as numerous as marginal 8-shaped pores ; submarginal setae in a 

 complete row terminating near the fourth posteriormost pair of marginal 

 8-shaped pores ; 4 setae in the posterior row of multilocular pores, 3 or 4 in 

 the penultimate row, and none to 2 in the first row anterior to penultimate. 



Apex of abdomen: Notch present; lobes indicated; setae, apical 30-36 fx long, 

 interapical (present on only 1 half of body in 1 of specimens examined) 7.2 fi 

 long, inner and outer ventral each about 12.6 fx long ; anal opening and tube not 

 definitely differentiated from surrounding derm, apex invaginated ; anal ring 

 at base of invagination, wide and filled with pores, also provided with 6 setae, 

 apparently around 55 jx long. 



Larva. — Elongate ovoid. 



Margin : With 22 8-shaped pores which are very slightly longer than wide, 

 their halves closely appressed, the anterior 3 or 4 pores on each side of body 

 larger than the others, which are uniform or only slightly variable in size, axes 

 of pores diagonal or transverse ; 4 pairs of setae at anterior end. 



Dorsal surface : 8-shaped pores in a submedian row of 5 or 6 on each half of 

 body, the anterior pores slightly larger than the posterior ones and very slightly 

 smaller than marginal pores of same segments ; disk pores in lateral area, a few 

 near anterior marginal 8-shaped pores and others near anterior submedian 

 8-shaped pores. 



Ventral surface : Antennal setae, I, 1 ; IV, 1 ; V, 1 ; VI, 2 long, 2 stout, 3 fairly 

 stout, 2 slender ; antennal bases one-half length of antenna apart ; beak setae, 2 

 pairs apical, 1 pair median ; spiracle with 1 trilocular and 1 apparently quinque- 

 locular pore ; leg setae, coxa 4, femur 1 on inner margin near base and 1 each on 

 inner and outer margins near center, tarsus 1 each on inner and outer margins ; 

 tibia about one-third as long as tarsus; 9 pairs of submarginal 8-shaped pores; 

 9 pairs of submarginal minute setae, on abdomen, thorax, and head, 1 pair of 

 submarginal larger setae at anterior end; 2 pairs of setae between antennae and 

 mouth parts. 



Apex of abdomen : Notch shallow ; setae, apical around 72 ll long, interapical 

 14 ll long, inner ventral 5.4 m long, outer ventral 7.2 ix long; anal opening not 

 definitely differentiated from surrounding derm, apex invaginated, and ring at 

 base of invagination ; anal ring with 6 setae apparently 12.6 /x long and without 

 pores. 



Data. — Kedescribed from unmounted material, 1 intact mounted fe- 

 male, and half of another, and 15 mounted larvae, all on Calophylkum 

 walkeri, Pattipola, Ceylon, from E. E. Green, March 27, 1912, type. 



The marginal 8-shaped pores are unusual in shape, being practically 

 as wide as long, a condition found in no other known species of the 

 genus except phoenicis. The multilocular marginal and spiracular 

 pores are also unusual though similar ones are sometimes found in 

 other species, and the undifferentiation of an anal opening and tube 

 from the surrounding derm is in definite contrast to the condition
