Identification of the Mealybug 
493 
with inner and outer pore bands and 6 setae averaging about 196 ju long; body 
with the usual type of pores, the small triangular sort occurring both dorsally and 
ventrally in loose and indistinct^transverse bands in the abdominal region, 
apparently indiscriminately scattered anteriorly, multilocular disk pores present 
ventrally in 5 transverse segmental rows in the abdominal region; large tubular 
ducts apparently confined to 1 opposite or nearly opposite and dorsad of each 
cerarius, and 1 or perhaps sometimes more on the median line anterior to the 
anal ring, small tubular ducts present in a loose cluster beneath each of the 
posterior 5 or 6 pairs of abdominal cerarii, the size of the clusters diminishing 
anteriorly, number and arrangement of these pores apparently showing con¬ 
siderable variation, and in indefinite transverse ventral rows accompanying 
the large disk pores; dorsal setae small, in scattered transverse bands, ventral 
setae varying, but mostly much longer and relatively more slender, quite con¬ 
spicuous, particularly anterior to the mouth parts; with a single, unusually large, 
quadrate ventral cicatrix. 
This species has been redescribed from the three imperfect adult 
females from the original Maskell slide mounts having the following 
data: “from Traversia , June 1878.”
