17,2 Morrison: Philippine Nondiaspine Coccidas 177 
Considering the wide distribution and wide range of host 
plants already recorded for this species, under its different 
names, it is my belief that it will ultimately be found to be some 
previously described species from another part of the world. It 
seems to be quite closely related to the common citrus mealy bug, 
P. citri (Risso), in many of its structural characters, but is 
viviparous, and has much stouter legs and antennae. 
Specimens from the following collections of Philippine mate- 
rial have been examined : 
Luzon, Manila, on Ficus cumingii (2605), Spondias purpurea 
(2595), Annona squamosa (2593), Annona glabra (2569), and 
Erythrina subumbrans (2604) (all coll. Arce) , bamboo (Com- 
pere 20141) : Bulacan Province, Baliuag, on Eugenia jambos 
(coll. Arce 2612), on Antidesma sp. (coll. Arce 2611) ; Quingua, 
on Premna odorata (coll. Arce 2610), Streblus asper (coll. Arce 
2618), Semecarpus cuneiformis (coll. Arce 2613) : Laguna 
Province, Los Banos, on Canangium odoratum (coll. Banks 
(18451) ; Paete, on Ficus ulmifolia (coll. McGregor) : Rizal Prov- 
ince, Balintauac, on Ceiba pentandra (coll. Arce 2601) , on coffee 
(coll. Arce 2600), on Psidium guajava (coll. McGregor) ; Culi 
Culi, on Streblus asper (coll. McGregor) ; Fort William McKin- 
ley, on Psidium guajava (coll. McGregor) ; Pasig, on Streblus 
asper (coll. McGregor) . 
Genus ANTONINA Signoret 
This genus and its single Philippine species should be easily 
recognizable from the characters given in the key to genera. 
Antonina zonata Green. Plate 1, fig. 6. 
Antonina zonata Green, Ent. Month. Mag. 55 (1919) 175. 
This is a plump, globular species found at the points where 
small bamboo stems branch, either beneath leaf sheaths or more 
or less exposed. In its dried condition it shrivels irregularly 
and is dark reddish brown in color, varying in size from 2 to 4 
millimeters. The anal tube is surrounded by a somewhat cir- 
cular, more heavily chitinized plate bearing numerous glands 
and hairs, and the anal ring setae protrude half or more of their 
length beyond the mouth of the tube. 
The species would appear to be at least fairly common from 
the records of material examined. 
Luzon, Manila, on bamboo (coll. Compere 20149), on Bam- 
busa sp. (coll. Banks 10093), on Bambusa blumeana (coll. Arce 
2598) : Bulacan Province, Baliuag (coll. Banks 10151).
