galls, in this and in his Plate 1, figures 6 and 7, together with 
his descriptive notes, are apparently identical with the work of 
this insect as I found it on Ficus variegata. 
Crawford (’15:258, pi. 1, fig. F) described the insect as 
P. bakeri sp. nov., and in a later paper (Crawford ’19: 145) 
reported its identity with Rubsaamen’s species, by which the 
former is preoccupied. 
Pauropsylla triozoptera Crawford (’13:296). Plate 1, fig. 5; 
Plate 2, fig. 14; Plate 3, fig. 19; Plate 4, fig. 34; Plate 5, 
fig. 45. 
Male . — Length of body, 1.7 millimeters; width of head, 0.64; 
length of antennae, 0.96; length of forewings, 2.72, width, 1.49. 
Dark reddish brown. Brownish yellow as follows: Antennal 
segments 1, II, and III, and basal fourth of IV, VI, and VII; 
ocelli; legs, except distal spines of femora and tibiae and distal 
third of ungues, which are dark brown ; genital segment ; genital 
forceps; and anal valve. Body smooth and shiny, sparsely 
and briefly pubescent, more densely so at mesopraescutum, 
mesoscutum, mesoscutellum, femora, tibiae, tarsi, genital segment, 
genital forceps, and anal valve. 
Head subequal in width to thorax, not deflected. Vertex 
about three and one-third times as wide as long, deeply concave. 
Frons about four and a half times as long as wide, visible as 
a narrow sclerite from anterior ocellus to base of clypeus. Eyes 
subhemispherical, about three-fourths as thick as distance from 
lateral margin to median suture of vertex. Anterior ocellus 
subhemispherical, subequal in size to posterior. Posterior 
ocelli prominently elevated. Antennae about one and a half 
times as long as width of head including eyes ; segment 
I slightly thicker than II ; I and II subequal in length ; II about 
three times as thick as III; III and the rest of the segments 
distad subequal in diameter. 
Thorax robust; length slightly shorter than thickness and 
about three-fourths of width. Prothorax short and completely 
hidden from above by cephalic portion of mesopraescutum. Meso- 
praescutum subpentagonal, about three-fourths as long as wide, 
broadly rounded down cephalad; cephalic margin describing an 
angle of about 90°; an abruptly subconical projection on each 
lateral area. Mesoscutum subreniform ; concave margin 
directed cephalad; about two and two-fifths times as wide as 
long, about five-sixths as long as prsescutum; a lateral, some- 
what anteriorly divergent, abruptly subconical projection
