and second lobes; a similar one just mesad of third lobe; and 
a smaller one mesad of fourth lobe.

This is a very distinct species, somewhat related to Targionia 
mooeri (Green), from India, but easily recognized by the nu- 
merous lobes and large claviform thickenings or glands, which 
recall those of Chrysomphalus quadriclavatus (Green), found 
on Murraya exotica in Ceylon. Green calls these structures 
clubbed paraphyses. It is rather remarkable that the Mexican 
Chrysomphalus rhizophorss, which has groups of circumgenital 
glands and is not closely related to Targionia merrilli, also has 
very long paraphyses. I give a sketch of the caudal end of 
this insect (not before figured) for comparison.
