Pauroeepliala psylloptera setifera Crawford.

Several specimens from Fiji Islands appear to belong to this 
variety. The color is uniformly a little darker than the average 
of the Philippine forms, but the markings on vertex and notum 
are similar and the antennae are similarly colored, darker at tips 
of segments 3 to 8. The body surface is a little less hirsute 
than in the Philippine forms. By a mechanical error this variety 
was originally placed with the wrong species. 
Fiji Islands (Muir), 2 males and 3 females, 1905. Singa- 
pore (Baker), 1 male. The specimen from Singapore differs 
from the type of the variety in being orange yellow with some 
darker streaks on notum. The body surface and wing veins are 
less hirsute, but the male genitalia are quite similar.

This Philippine species was misplaced in the genus Paur- 
opsylla. The wing venation, form of vertex and presence of the 
metascutellum epiphysis point to its close affinity with species of 
Pauroeepliala. A few additions to the original description are 
here made. 
Vertex not prominently elevated at posterior ocelli, without 
foveal impressions. Surface of vertex and dorsum finely re- 
ticuiately marked. Metascutellum produced upward into a thick 
epiphysis with a very small, acute point. Hind legs longer than 
others, but relatively shorter than in some other species of the 
genus. Female genital segment turned downward, with tip of 
dorsal valve curved outward, acute. The shortness of the an- 
tennae is an unusual character in this genus. 
Mindanao, Davao (Baker), 3 females.

Length of body, female, 0.9 millimeter; length of forewing, 
1.4. General color brown to dark brown, with legs, venter, and 
antennae lighter or pale; a whitish or pale spot on thorax at 
base of each forewing. Body small. 
Resembling P. psylloptera in many characteristics, and ap- 
parently closely related to that species. Vertex relatively 
broader and with foveal impressions and postocellar elevations 
less prominent. Antennae short, scarcely as long as width of
