SUPPLEMENTAliY NOTES ON COCGIPM OF CEYLON. 1029 
Adult female (a) ovate, highly convex, depressed posteriorly ; with a 
strongly marked rounded tumescence on each side of the dorsum. Colour 
dull olivaceous brown, dusted with mealy secretion which is condensed 
into a thick covering on the marginal area. Dense, vertical, waxy bands, 
of an ochreous white colour, arise from the stigmatic areas on each side, 
extending far onto the dorsum. A long, stout, curling, white filament 
arises from near the posterior extremity, on each side, extending upwards 
and backwards. Several waxy spots, on each side of the abdomen, 
possibly mark the position of other similar filaments that have been lost. 
Derm deeply and closelj'- pitted. Antennte probably 8-jointed, normally ; 
in the example under examination the antennae are 7-jointed {d), the 
long third joint showing indications of incomplete division. Limbs and 
antennae relatively small and weakly chitinized Tarsus rather more 
than half the length of the tibia ; tibiotarsal articulation very indistinct 
tarsal digitules slender, knobbed ; ungual digitules slightly dilated. 
Anal operculum small, ovate, the base and outer margin of each valve 
together forming an even curve. Margin with a distant series of small, 
slender spines. Stigmatic clefts (b) shallow, inwardly bordered with a 
lunate chitinous plate ; stigmatic spines three, rather slender, of 
approximately equal length. Dorsum closely crowded with large, irregu- 
larly polygonal, dermal cells (c). Length 8 mm. 
On an unidentified shrub : Maha Illuppalama. Described from a single 
example collected hy Mr. J. C. F. Fryer to whom I am pleased to dedicate 
this fine species.
