Eemarks : The waxy material adherent to the insects studied is quite 
different from the secretion generally found in the Pseudococcini. After 
boiling the specimens in a strong solution of KOH for fifteen minutes they 
were passed through the alcohols and stained by the magenta method, 
cleared in oil of cloves and mounted in Canada balsam. Every mounted 
specimen has some portion obscured by a more or less dense mass of 
waxy-looking material.
