266 Psyche [Vol. 92 
placed longigena in Phlotodes it probably has Rs and M fused and 
should be in Myopsocus. 
2. Species originally assigned to Psocus Latreille then to 
Phlotodes. 
hermosus Banks 1920, Singapore (see Smithers 1979). 
luteolus Banks 1920, Singapore (see Smithers 1979). 
pulchellus Banks 1920, Singapore (see Smithers 1979). 
3. Species originally assigned to Myopsocus or to Psocus then 
to Myopsocus and best left in Myopsocus until they can be re- 
examined, as in the case of the six species listed as incertae sedis by 
Mockford (1982). 
loriai Ribaga 1908, New Guinea. 
B. Species which should now be placed in Lichenomima. 
Originally assigned to Myopsocus: 
pattoni Datta 1966, India. Dr. Datta has kindly provided a 
sketch of the wing venation of this species. In the hind wing Rs and 
M are joined by a crossvein, as in species of Lichenomima. 
virginianus Banks 1900, North America. Mr. Vogt has kindly 
examined Banks’ material in the Museum of Comparative Zoology 
and has informed me that Rs and M in the hind wing are joined by a 
crossvein, not fused, as in Lichenomima. 
C. Additional comments. 
It should be noted that Myopsocus novaezealandiae Kolbe and 
M. griseipennis (McLachlan) are listed separately by Mockford 
(1982). Both are synonyms of M. australis (Brauer) (Smithers, 
1975a). Phlotodes inocellata Smithers and Thornton has been trans- 
ferred to Mouldsia Smithers (Smithers 1978). 
Summary 
An attempt is made to place thirteen species of Myopsocidae in 
appropriate genera following a redefinition of Myopsocus Hagen 
and Lichenomima Enderlein by Mockford (1982). 
Acknowledgements 
I would like to thank Dr. New and Dr. Datta for providing addi- 
tional information on the species described by them and Mr. Charles 
Vogt for information on Banks’ material.
