Since the above was written, I have received a number of specimens from 
Rhododendron in Oregon, where the species was probably introduced and 
has become established. 
I take pleasure in naming this species in honor of Dr. Ronald Gordon Fen- 
nah, Director of the Commonwealth Institute of Entomology, who has made 
major contributions to our knowledge of the anchenorrhynchous Homoptera.
